Roman Billon coin of the Emperor Aurelian 270 - 275 AD (20mm)
Born of humble parents, Aurelian went on to become a great general and finally Emperor in 270 AD. Suprisingly, he can be considered the father of Christmas! Aurelian established December 25 as the Festival of Sol, the Sun God, in 275 AD. The Christians later adopted this date for Christmas so that their celebration would not be detected.
