Abstract
The emperor Gallienus (253-268) struck a series of aurei that has attracted particular attention in the modern era due to its unusual features. The common factor uniting this series is that the imperial bust on the obverse displays a highly unusual crown, a crown of wheat stalks (corona spicea).
