This coin, struck at the beginning of Caligula's reign, is part of a commemorative series honoring his deceased family members, specifically paying tribute to his father, Germanicus.
A distinguished military commander, Germanicus successfully led campaigns against the Germanic tribes (AD 14-16), avenging Varus' defeat at the Teutoburg Forest and reclaiming two lost legionary eagles. His achievements earned him a Triumph in Rome in AD 17, after which he was sent to Asia to reorganize the provinces.
In AD 19, amid a conflict with the governor of Syria, Gnaeus Calpurnius Piso, Germanicus suddenly fell ill and died under suspicious circumstances, leading to accusations against Piso and suspicions involving Sejanus and even Tiberius.
His death caused widespread mourning in Rome, where he was deeply revered and honored. Caligula's decision to feature his father's portrait on this coin was likely a strategic move to strengthen his legitimacy and gain public favor at the beginning of his reign. Choice VF. Est...3500,00.
