 Sons of Gallienus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Since we have no evidence that Valerian II was ever Augustus, coins not marked as belonging to Saloninus are attributed to Valerian I. These distinctions were not made during the last century when Cohen (among others) attributed many coins of Valerian II to Saloninus and some youthful looking Valerian I issues to Valerian II.

If we were to accept the old assignment of both coins to Saloninus, we would need to explain the Caesar's growing younger over time.

The prefect Silvanus and Saloninus, by now declared Augustus in a vain effort to intimidate Postumus, were put to death.
