| There was in the past considerable confusion about the 2 Valerians. Earlier sources state that he was the son of Valerian I, and the half-brother of Gallienus, and also that many coins of the two Valerians were previously wrongly allocated. Modern opinion is that Valerian II was the son of Gallienus. Our antoninianus with the radiate head of Valerian facing right, and the legend VALERIANUS CAES.
