| Reversbeschreibung | A schematically rendered altar with flames rising from the top, depicted in a crude, angular style typical of barbarous imitations of the CONSECRATIO type issued following the deification of Claudius II. The altar is rendered as a rectangular structure with decorative panelling suggested by incised lines and pellet ornaments on the body. Flames or branches are visible flanking or surmounting the altar top. A surrounding legend in debased, largely illegible pseudo-Latin imitates the CONSECRATIO inscription of the prototype. The overall execution reflects significant degradation from the official Roman prototype. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Barbarous imitations of Claudius II's CONSECRATIO issues flooded the northwestern provinces after his death in 270 AD, produced by unofficial mints — likely in Britain and northern Gaul — to plug a catastrophic coinage shortage. The official series itself was extraordinary in scale: the Roman mints struck consecratio types in such enormous quantities to honor the deified Claudius that they effectively invited copying, providing imitators with a widely recognized and politically safe prototype.
At 0.81g, this piece sits well below even the debased official antoniniani of the period, suggesting multiple generations of reduction as imitators copied copies.
