Galerius, AD 305-311 BI Nummus
Issue as Caesar.Roman Age of Chaos
CERTIFIED BY NGC
Obverse : features a laureate portrait of the Emperor, framed by an inscription of his name and title.
Reverse : Galerius' Nummi frequently depicts Genius, with the inscription "GENIO POPV L I ROMANI," which means "The genius of the Roman people." The Genius was thought to be a protective male spirit, similar to a guardian angel. The image symbolizes the role of the Emperor as protector of his people.
Galerius held the position of co-Emperor
from A.D. 293-311, in the first and second Tetrarchies of the Roman Empire, as
Caesar from A.D. 293-305, and as Augustus from A.D. 305 until his death in A.D.
311. Galerius is responsible for ending the Diocletianic Persecution of
Christians with the issue of an edict of toleration in A.D. 311. This Roman
Nummus of Galerius was struck from billon, which is a base metal of bronze,
lightly plated with silver.
Galerius, in full Gaius Galerius Valerius
Maximianus, (born, near Serdica, Thrace [now Sofia, Bulg.]—died 311), Roman
emperor from 305 to 311, notorious for his persecution of Christians.
Galerius was born of humble parentage and had a distinguished military career.
On March 1, 293, he was nominated as caesar by the emperor Diocletian, who
governed the Eastern part of the empire. Galerius divorced his wife and married
Diocletian’s daughter, Valeria. After ruling from Egypt from 293 to 295,
Galerius assumed command of defensive operations against the Sāsānians in 297.
After being defeated, he then won a decisive victory that increased his
influence with Diocletian. Galerius next proceeded to the Balkans and won
numerous victories in the region. A staunch pagan, he persuaded the emperor to
initiate the persecution of the Christians at Nicomedia in 303.
