Roman Empire, Gallienus (253-268), Antoninianus, Rome mint, 11th emission, 12th officina.
Obverse: GALLIENVS AVG, radiate head right;
Reverse: CONSERVAT PIETAT, Emperor standing left, extending right hand and holding long sceptre in left hand, kneeling figure to the left, XII in exergue;
Notes: This peculiar type, employed exclusively by Gallienus, portrays the emperor in the act of raising a kneeling figure which likely represents the Roman people. The legend refers to Gallienus' role of protector of traditional values against the instability of the times; this theme will become even more important in the following emission, the so-called "Zoo series".
