Aureolus was a cavalry general who revolted against Gallienus and declared
himself ally of Postumus. After he captured the Mediolanum mint, he started
issuing coins in the name of his chosen protector, but Postumus decided not to support
him. After the death of Gallienus, Aureolus was soon overcome and put to death
by Claudius II.
