Geta was co-emperor of the Roman Empire from 209 to 211, alongside his brother Caracalla. After the death of their father, Septimius Severus, the two brothers became enmity with each other and made several plans to divide the empire. Eventually, Caracalla murdered Geta and erased his memory. Geta's coinage followed the style of the Severus dynasty and usually featured the portrait of his father or brother. The coins also featured Geta's titles and epithets, such as Caesar, Augustus, Pius, Britannicus. The purpose of coinage was to legitimize his power and ensure loyalty to the army and the people.
