A replica of a coin from the reign of Emperor Aurelian, the ruler who reunited the Roman Empire after a period of chaos.

Aurelianus was known for his military reforms and victories over barbarian tribes and the Palmyrene Empire. His coins often feature the emperor's bust with a radiate crown and allegorical figures symbolizing the power and restoration of the empire.

This hand-cast zinc replica faithfully replicates the appearance of the original Antoninian. The surface has a patina that gives the coin the authentic appearance of ancient metal.
