Beschrijving keerzijde The personification of Hilaritas standing left, draped, depicted in the coarse, abbreviated manner typical of barbarous imitations of Gallic Empire prototypes. She holds a long palm branch in her extended right hand and a sceptre in her left hand. The figure's drapery and attributes are rendered with simplified, schematic engraving, and any surrounding legend is garbled or absent, as is common on these unofficial struck pieces.

Aanvullende informatie

Tetricus II was elevated to Caesar under his father's Gallic Empire around 270 AD, and the pair were defeated by Aurelian at the Battle of Châlons in 274 — ending the breakaway western realm entirely. The legitimate coinage of Tetricus II was itself already debased and irregular enough that distinguishing official from imitative product is, in many cases, a matter of scholarly convention rather than hard evidence. At 0.63g, this piece sits well below even the degraded official standard, placing it firmly in the imitative tradition that flooded northwestern Gaul and Britain during the 270s.
