Gaius Vibius Trebonianus Gallus[5] (c. 206 – c. August 253)[4] was Roman emperor from June 251 to August 253, in a joint rule with his son Volusianus.
None of the identifications of specific emperors proposed to date are truly convincing... The highly divergent coinage of the emperors of this period lends credibility to the possibility that the subject is in fact Trebonianus Gallus.
