Postumus declared himself emperor in Gaul following the capture of Emperor Valerian by the Persians and the power vacuum that followed. Refusing to cede authority back to Rome, he established a rival government with its own senate, coinage, and military system—governing Gaul, Germania, Britannia, and parts of Hispania for nearly a decade.

Postumus was:

🛡️ Seen as a stabilizing force in the Western provinces

🏛️ Revered by his troops for protecting the Rhine frontier

⚔️ Ultimately assassinated by his own soldiers after refusing to allow the sacking of a captured city

His coins are noted for their high quality, regional styling, and faithful Roman iconography—even while ruling a “rebel” empire.

 

Collectors value this coinage for:

🧠 Its connection to the Crisis of the Third Century

🪙 Remarkably detailed strikes and artistic consistency

📈 Long-term collector and historical appeal

 

While this specific coin is not yet tied to a published hoard, its Choice XF grade and strike are consistent with hoard-preserved specimens—often buried during periods of instability and recovered centuries later.
