Variant types exist: AGK 7 substitutes a military standard for the trifid branch, while AGK 8 features a standard paired with a short scepter. The reverse legend PRINCIP IVVENT identifies the prince as heir apparent, a common titulature on Gallic Empire coinage of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tetricus II was elevated to Caesar by his father Tetricus I around 273, giving the Gallic Empire the appearance of dynastic continuity at a moment when the secessionist state was visibly collapsing. The PRINC IVVENT title — Prince of Youth — was a conventional honorific for imperial heirs, deployed here with obvious political intent: projecting stability to a Rhine frontier that had been hemorrhaging territory to Aurelian's resurgent central empire for years.
The reunification came in 274 at the Battle of Châlons, after which Tetricus I reportedly surrendered without serious resistance. Father and son were paraded in Aurelian's triumph but spared — the younger Tetricus disappears from the record entirely after that procession.
