DIVO CLAVDIO, radiate head right / CONSECRATIO, altar with flames above, front divided into four sections with dot in each section. 17mm, 2.42 grams. Irregular Gallic mint. RIC 259 or similar.

Posthumous issue struck under Quintillus (and probably Aurelian). These coins were minted in most Roman mints, but are most commonly found in England, France and the surrounding areas. While usually given to the Mediolanum (Milan) mint, it seems much more likely that these were minted in the irregular mints in Gaul, perhaps to pay for the reconquest of the Gallic Provinces.
