vince1977 Pillar of the Community Netherlands 847 Posts	Posted 08/09/2015 06:26 am Hello All, Ive got here 2 sestertius in my collection. One looks like Gordianus with mars revers. But the SC is low and on he backside the lyrics don't fit with the ones I see online: Obverse is this: IMP GORDIANVS PIVS FEL AVG Reverse probably this: P M TR P V COS II P P Military issue? The other is antonius pius I thinK? Report this Post to the Staff
