Vol1. No. 118 | Notes: | The reverse legend stands for P(rovincia) M(oesia) S(uperior) COL(onia) VIM(inacium) The town was started by Gordian III in 239 or 240 and it lasted until the reign of Gallienus (and Valerianus I) in 254/255 A.D. During this period coins were not struck in AN. X (248/249) and AN. XV (253/254). The standard representation on reverse is a female figure which is usually identified as standing Moesia Superior or town Viminacium. At her right foot there is a bull (symbol of VII legion Claudia), and on her left there is a lion (symbol of IIII legion Flavia, that was situated in Singidinum, today Belgrade). Today Kostolac near Pozarevac in Yugoslavia is the nearest town to Viminacium. Struck in AD 243/244. |
