Orange Julius Posted January 1, 2023 · Member Author Share Posted January 1, 2023 Saw this intaglio of Gallienus on a facebook group I’m in… no reference or museum information included in the post. I like seeing non-coin depictions of the emperors we see on our coins. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
