Roman Empire Probus AD 276-282 BI Aurelianianus

Own a striking piece from one of Rome’s most turbulent eras with this authentic Aurelianianus of Emperor Probus, minted between AD 276 and 282 and professionally authenticated by NGC.

Struck during the later stages of the so-called “Age of Chaos” (3rd Century Crisis), this coin represents a period when the Roman Empire was under constant pressure from internal instability and external threats. Probus, a highly capable military leader, helped restore order and stabilize the empire—continuing the reforms initiated by Aurelian.

This coin is composed of billon (BI), a bronze alloy with a thin silver coating, many examples of which still display traces of their original brilliance. The obverse typically features Probus wearing the radiate crown, symbolizing the sun god Sol and imperial authority, while the reverse often showcases themes of victory, strength, or divine favor.

Encapsulated by NGC, this piece is guaranteed authentic and preserved in a tamper-resistant holder, making it ideal for collectors who value both history and presentation.

With over 1,700 years of history, this coin offers a tangible connection to the resilience of the Roman Empire during one of its greatest periods of challenge.
