Valerius bore the title
clarissimus puer in his youth, and later
nobilissimus vir. He was
consul with his father in 308 and 309; the fact that Maxentius was the only consul for year 310 suggests that Valerius died in 309. He was buried in a tomb along the
Via Appia. After death, his status was
raised to Divus and his father dedicated the
Temple of Divus Romulus to him along the
Via Sacra near the
Roman Forum. Also, a series of commemorative coins was issued in his name, showing a domed shrine with one of the doors ajar, and an eagle on top. ==References==
