Commentary


Sans argenture superficielle. Deux exemplaires de ce type dans le catalogue de La Venèra. On ne voit pas de lettre numérale à l’exergue. Cette variété est bien reprise par R. Göbl dans son corpus sur Aurélien (pl. 78, n° 141 t0).

Historical background


SEVERINA

(+ after 275)

Wife of Aurelian - Augusta

Séverine, who receives the title of augusta in 274, survives her husband Aurélien, assassinated by a palace conspiracy. A three-month interregnum ensued, during which Séverine may continue to settle current affairs with the help of the Senate. The coinage of Séverine is very important compared to that of her husband for such a short period, between the end of 274, date of the reform, and the death of Aurélien.
