Libius Severus (Severus III, 461-465). AE 9 mm. Rome mint, issued under Ricimer. Obv. Unreadable legend. Diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right. Rev. Monogram of Ricimer. RIC X 2716. AE. 1.07 g. 9.00 mm. RR. Very rare. Somewhat pitted on obverse. Dark green patina, with dark deposits. F/About VF. In November of 461, Ricimer proclaimed Libius Severus emperor at Ravenna, and other than the fact that he was a native of Lucania, nothing else is known. He was little more than a puppet, as evidenced by some of his nummi such as this one with Ricimer’s monogram as the reverse type. Severus died in 465, presumably of natural causes, which was quite a remarkable achievement during the final thirty years of the Western Roman empire.
