I`m back after abut 6 months! Feels pretty good to be back. I have a coin for you to judge the authenticity of. I think it looks legit, but I just want to double-check with you guys.

To my way of thinking, the antoninianii of Gordian 111 are the most reasonably priced in the ancient Roman coin series. I usually buy an example to give to any who may be interested in things ancient, coins or what ever else.

From the pictures, this one looks quite OK to me.

Yep, Gordian III is probably the emperor that you can get the best examples of for the cheapest. I have 3 just because of how mint condition they look. Alexander Severus can be pretty cheap too.
