Gallo-Roman - AE3 Barbarous Radiate of Tetricus II (ca. 400AD)
Offered is a scarce AE3, or Minimus Nummus, from an irregular mint, depicting an obverse of Tetricus II with title Caesar, muled with a stylized reverse of his father Tertricus I (likely the PAX AVG type, RIC#100). A fascinating piece of charming style, this piece retains good detail for a Barbarous Radiate, and bears nearly complete inscriptions.
