| Aanvullende informatie |
Vitellius ruled for less than eight months in 69 AD — the Year of the Four Emperors — before being dragged through the streets of Rome and killed by Vespasian's forces. His coinage programme was brief but surprisingly ambitious, struck at both Rome and Lugdunum as he consolidated power following Otho's suicide at Bedriacum. The appeal to Concordia was pointed: his regime needed to project unity at a moment when the empire had just endured two civil wars in rapid succession.
RIC I#133 is among the scarcer Vitellian bronze issues, a straightforward consequence of the reign's brevity.
