Fully silvered Ant of Gordian III

I find it interesting the the emperor has facial hair. Usually see him cleaned shaven.

Another nice coin. I don't know why, but many Gordian III portraits make him look goofy to me. Perhaps he was.

NIce coin with great details! Looks like he has mutton chops and a mustache. Maybe his chin hair wasn't quite filling in or maybe the in vogue of beard styles.

Nice coin. If you insist on calling these 'fully silvered' you need to show that they are not solid (heavily alloyed, certainly, but solid).
