Description: NGC F Severina Wife of Aurelian AD274-275 Aurelianianus / Antoninianus Aurelian, born c. AD 214, is best known today for reuniting the Roman Empire after its fracture during the reign of Gallienus. Ulpia Severina, Roman empress and wife of Emperor Aurelian (c. 270–275), is known primarily through coins and inscriptions. Little is known about her, but her nomen "Ulpia" suggests a possible connection to Emperor Trajan or usurper Laelianus. Married to Aurelian before he became emperor, she was likely proclaimed Augusta in 274. After Aurelian's murder in 275, Tacitus succeeded him following a short interregnum. Some speculate that coins minted during this period bearing Severina's name indicate a brief rule by her or confusion about Aurelian's successor, but this remains speculative due to the absence of literary sources.Grade: ( F) Fine - Certified, Graded and Encapsulated by NGC The aurelianianus was introduced by Aurelian as a replacement to the Antoninianus in 274 A.D. and struck until 293 A.D.
