Commentary


Seulement 2 exemplaires recensés dans le trésor d’Éauze et treize dans l’ouvrage de Göbl (MIR. 36) ! C’est la première fois que nous passons ce type à la vente. Cet antoninien semble beaucoup plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux.
Only two examples were recorded in the Eauze treasure and thirteen in Göbl's work (MIR. 36)! This is the first time we have put this type up for sale. This antoninianus seems much rarer than general works suggest.

Historical background


SALONINA

(+268)

Wife of Gallienus, mother of Valerian II and Saloninus - Augusta

Salonine, the wife of Gallien, seems to receive the title of augusta in 253, when her husband is associated with power by Valerian I. She loses at least two of her children, young Valérien and Salonin. She is murdered at the same time as her husband. Salonina is said to have had Christian sympathies.
