CILICIA, Tarsus. Valerian I. AD 253-260. Æ (32mm, 16.88 g, 12h). Radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust right / Cronus advancing left, head right, holding harpa and uncertain object (phiale?). SNG BN –; SNG Levante 1183 (same reverse die). Dark green patina with reddish earthen highlights/deposits, weakly struck reverse. Fine.

This coin shares the same reverse die with the Levante specimen, which is also weakly struck. A well struck example, if one exists, might reveal what Cronus is holding with his left hand, if anything.
