Marcus Aurelius Claudius Quintillus was a short-lived Roman emperor.

He took power after the death of his brother, Emperor Claudius

Gothicus, in 270 CE. After reigning for a few weeks Quintillus was overthrown by Aurelian, who had been proclaimed rival emperor by the legions he commanded. The ancient sources variously report him to have killed himself, to have fallen in battle against Aurelian, or to have been murdered by his own soldiers.

The coin is a great addition to any collection of ancient coins, especially for those interested in Roman imperial history.
