Marcus Aurelius Marius ruled only briefly in AD 269, rising to power after Postumus’ assassination. Chosen by the troops, he issued a modest but distinctive coinage before being eliminated by Victorinus, who swiftly took control. His rare coins are the enduring trace of a reign that lasted mere months.
