rev. Hostilianus in military attire standing left, holding baton in his
right hand and transverse spear in his left, surrounded by the legend
PRINCIPI IVVENTVIS Caius Valens Messius Quintus Hostilianus was born round 236-238, the youngest of two sons of Trajan Decius and Herennia Etruscilla. Life for Hostilian was brief and tragic. His is one of the most difficult reigns for historians to reconstruct due to the poor evidence of the period and the great many changes that occurred in the political scenario. As the youngest son of Trajan Decius, perhaps only just beginning his ′teen′ years, Hostilian remained in Rome with his mother when his father and older brother departed for the Danube, never to return. During the course of his father′s absence, Hostilian was hailed Caesar. This may have occurred as early as 250 when his brother Herennius Etruscus was still Caesar, or more likely it occurred when his brother was raised to the rank of Augustus after the initial defeat of the Goths in the spring of 251. In either case, when his father and brother died in battle in the summer of 251 Hostilian and his mother were still safely residing in Rome. The new emperor, Trebonianus Gallus, soon journeyed to Rome where he was confirmed by the Senate and honoured Hostilian and his mother by sparing them of harm. The widowed empress seemingly retained her title of Augusta, and young Hostilian was actually raised from Caesar to Augustus, a title he shared with his new ′adoptive father′ Gallus. This was no minor act, for Gallus’ son Volusian (who apparently was older than Hostilian) was given the junior rank of Caesar. As honourable as Gallus′ overture was, it mattered little, for within a few months Hostilian died of the plague that was then ravaging the capital.
Aurii from Hostilianus are all very rare to extremely rare. The type we see most is with Hostilianus holding a standard and vertical spear. A wonderful example of that coin was sold at NAC (auction 51, lot. 384, SFR 80.000 + 16,5%) and also in other sales (Larry Goldberg, auction 72 Lot 4199 in xf : USD 55.000 + 15%). This type with Hostilianus holding a baton and transverse spear is much more rare, certainly with the variety VALES insteads of VALENS. Only a few examples are known from this type, missing in most important collections. Therefor a coin of the highest rarity.
