Reference
RIC 195-196.
Tacitus, Roman Emperor who ruled just over 6 months from December 275 - June 276 AD. He was elected by the Senate after the assassination of Aurelian. During his short reign he campaigned against the Goths, the Heruli and won victories in Asia Minor. For his victory against the barbarian tribes he was given the name ‘Gothicus Maximus'.

It is uncertain whether he was murdered by his soldiers or died of disease. His successor was his half brother, Florian, who ruled for three months before being killed by his soldiers.

PROVIDEN(TIA) DEOR(VM): Latin for 'Foresight of the Gods'

Providentia: Roman personification of foresight, foreknowledge and providence.
