RIC 17-18), and a heavier series, with radiate busts, probably representing double aurei, although their average weight is of only 8.5 gm (cf.
In 275 AD, Aurelian was murdered by a group of officers and the army passed the next appointment of emperor to the Senate, which choose the 75 year old Tacitus who claimed descent from the famous historian.
The omission, however, of the radiate bust from the light series and the tradition of its indicating double units of aurei, denarii, and sestertii, or at least heavier ones, allow us to speculate that the radiate gold are intended, at least in part, to be seen as “doubles” or “binioes.” By permission of CNG, www.cngcoins.com.

Where ten aurei, payable every year, are bequeathed to Titius, the judge having jurisdiction under the Falcidian Law to establish the proportion payable by the heir and other legatees should estimate the value of the legacy at whatever it could have brought during the life of Titius, it being uncertain how long Titius might live.
Where a tract of land, worth fifty aurei, is devised under the condition that the party to whom it is left shall pay fifty aurei to the heir, many authorities think that the devise is valid, because the reason for complying with the condition is stated.
Therefore, as thirty aurei must be paid, certain authorities hold that fifteen shall be due from each of us, which opinion is entirely incorrect; for although we have each received the same amount, it is still evident that my legacy is somewhat more valuable than yours.

The Romans introduced a currency system into Britain based on three metals: the aureus of gold, the denarius of silver and lower denominations of copper alloy.
This valuable hoard consists solely of gold aurei, coins never in everyday circulation but used by administrators, bankers or rich merchants.
Although it spans more than 100 years (from AD65-174), the hoard is thought to be a random selection of coins likely to represent the owner's savings, deposited in a safe place but never retrieved.

Similar reverses were used on some aurei and there is also in existence a rare dupondius and an equally rare as showing Hercules capturing the Ceryneian stag which might indicate that the series once extended to the smaller denominations as well.
The aurei were extremely well executed, despite unfavourable comparisons have been made with those of Postumus.
One of the most notable features of the coinage of Victorinus was the series of aurei naming thirteen legions, with reverse designs that represented their respective badges or emblems.

I'm Aurei." She said in a cheery and soft voice, which was slightly tight as the pain from her arm was quite bad.
She was different, and when we attempted to put a pin through her and attach her forever on the same page as us, the pin went through her and she merely flew away.
