Quintillus Antoninianus Billon (NGC Certified) — 77-Day Emperor
Authentic NGC-certified silver-washed billon Antoninianus from Quintillus — Claudius II brother rules 17-77 days only before suicide vs Aurelian during Crisis chaos (AD 270).
Fleeting Radiate Design
• Obverse: Radiate-crowned portrait right — emergency emperor claim
• Reverse: Providentia / Aequitas / Fides — loyalty + virtue propaganda

• Weight: 3-4g
• Diameter: 20-22mm
• Certification: NGC slabbed
