Description: ATTENTION!!!LOW STARTING PRICE,IN SPIRIT OF GOOD OLD AUCTIONS AND COMPETITION!!CORNELIA SUPERA wife of Aemilian 253 AD SILVER Ar ANTONINIANUS 2,69 gr. VESTA Gaia Cornelia Supera was the wife of Aemilian. Like the wife of Gallienus, Julia Cornelia Salonina, Supera was descended from the illustrious gens Cornelia.We know almost nothing about the lives and accomplishments of many emperors and would-be emperors of the 3rd century, aside from their coins and/or scant literary references. Even less is usually known about their wives. Such is the case with Cornelia Supera, the wife of Aemilian, who ruled for a mere three months in 253. Most likely, Cornelia joined her husband as he defeated Trebonianus Gallus in Italy, but soon afterwards, the tide turned against the imperial couple when Valerian claimed the purple at the Rhine frontier and headed towards Rome with a considerable force. Aemilian’s men, believing the situation hopeless, turned on their commander and killed him at Spoletium. It is unclear whether Cornelia Supera shared her husband’s fate or if Valerian spared her; her coins, after all, are the only testament to her existence.
