AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Roman Empire.
Lot of 3x Antoniniani/Radiates, including Valerian I, Probus, Maximianus.

Item details:

— Valerian I (253-260 AD). Antoninianus (Billon, 20 mm, 3.48 g).
Obv: IMP C P LIC VALERIANVS AVG. Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right.
Rev: LAETITIA AVGG. Laetitia standing left holding wreath and anchor.
Reference: RIC V.1, 216.

— Probus (276-282 AD). Antoninianus (Bronze, 21 mm, 2.75 g).
Obv: IMP C M AVR PROBVS P F AVG. Radiate draped bust right.
Rev: CLEMENTIA TEMP. Emperor standing right, holding sceptre, receiving globe from Jupiter, standing left, holding sceptre. Officina symbol in lower centre. Mintmark XXI.
Reference: RIC V.2, 927.

— Maximianus (286-305 AD). Æ Radiate Fraction (Bronze, 20 mm, 3.9 g).

Rev: CONCORDIA MILITVM, Emperor standing right, receiving Victory on globe from Jupiter standing left, holding sceptre.

These issues trace Rome’s recovery from the third-century crisis. Valerian I’s capture in war exposed the empire’s military vulnerability; Probus restored frontier security through relentless campaigning but fell to his own troops; and Maximianus embodied the later shift to collegiate rule, when shared imperial authority and regional commands sought to stabilize succession, taxation and defense.
