Matt2727 Valued Member United States 219 Posts	Posted 06/09/2017 3:02 pm Hey everyone, I've been struggling to identify this Roman coin. I believe it to be an antoninianus, possibly of Gordian III, but I can't find any of his coins with Concordia seated on the reverse. Can anyone tell me more about this coin?

Nice coin and nicely toned. The ants of Gordian III are in abundance in high grades at relatively affordable prices which is great for collectors. Not often do you find gVF or EF coins in an accessible price range. Edited by greekandromancoins 06/09/2017 8:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff
