A Roman Imperial bronze coin, identified as an issue of Emperor Gallienus (reigned 253-268 AD). The obverse features a right-facing laureate bust of the emperor, with a partially legible Latin inscription including ‘IMP CAES…’ and ‘…GALLIENVS AVG’. The reverse depicts a standing, armored male figure, possibly a deity or soldier, holding an object, with faint surrounding text and symbols visible. The coin is circular and made of a dark-patinated base metal, consistent with bronze or copper alloy.
