GRADED NGC
Obverse: IMP C M AVR PROBVS AVG, Radiate and cuirassed bust right.

Felicitas standing left, holding caduceus and cornucopiae.
In ancient Roman culture, felicitas (from
the Latin adjective felix, "fruitful, blessed, happy, lucky") is a condition of
divinely inspired productivity, blessedness, or happiness. Felicitas could
encompass both a woman's fertility, and a general's luck or good fortune. The
divine personification of Felicitas was cultivated as a goddess. Although
felicitas may be translated as "good luck," and the goddess Felicitas shares
some characteristics and attributes with Fortuna, the two were distinguished in
Roman religion. Fortuna was unpredictable and her effects could be negative, as
the existence of an altar to Mala Fortuna ("Bad Luck") acknowledges. Felicitas,
however, always had a positive significance. She appears with several epithets
that focus on aspects of her divine power.
Felicitas had a temple in Rome as early as the mid-2nd century BC, and during
the Republican era was honored at two official festivals of Roman state
religion, on July 1 in conjunction with Juno and October 9 as Fausta Felicitas.
Felicitas continued to play an important role in Imperial cult, and was
frequently portrayed on coins as a symbol of the wealth and prosperity of the
Roman Empire. Her primary attributes are the caduceus and cornucopia. The
English word "felicity" derives from felicitas.
Probus (Latin:
Marcus Aurelius Probus Augustus; c. 19 August 232 - September/October 282),
was Roman Emperor from 276 to 282.
During his reign, the Rhine and Danube frontier was strengthened after
successful wars against several Germanic tribes such as the Goths, Alamanni,
Longiones, Franks, Burgundians, and Vandals. The Agri Decumates and much of the
Limes Germanicus in Germania Superior were officially abandoned during his
reign, with the Romans withdrawing to the Rhine and Danube rivers.
Probus was a leading general under Aurelian. He was proclaimed Emperor on
the death of Tacitus by his troops. Although he tried to restore power to Rome
by building many public work projects, he was murdered by some mutinous troops
who were enraged by having to work on these projects instead of doing military
duty.
