Roman Gold Aureus of Emperor Vitellius - SK.073Origin: MediterraneanCirca: 69 ADCollection: Roman CoinsStyle: RomanMedium: Gold. Rome witnessed the spectacle of four emperors in AD 69, after the suicide of Nero the previous year, as well as a civil war. Each of these four had larger-than-life personal characteristics which are reflected in the numismatic portraiture and told in historical accounts. As can be imagined, the coinage under Otho and Vitellius is particularly rare. - (SK.073 )
