echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 12/14/2008 6:35 pm Hello and welcome to the Forum, My eyes aren't what they used to be. Can you make out the letters on the obverse after IMP, I having a hard time seeing them. The bust almost looks like Gordian III, but I don't think it is. Report this Post to the Staff
Sir Ferrari Pillar of the Community United States 671 Posts	Posted 12/14/2008 6:55 pm Is there anyway you can post larger pictures? I cannot see the letters either. Based on these, it could be ~~Severus Alexander~~ Gordian III. Edited by Sir Ferrari 12/15/2008 2:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff

The bust almost looks like Gordian III, but I don't think it is. I read it as IMP CAES M AN..., which fits with Gordian III. Looks like a VICTORIA AVG reverse, similar to this one except Victoria's walking the other way. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Bacchus2 Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2932 Posts	Posted 12/17/2008 5:07 pm It actually looks suspiciously like a cast copy -- though larger pictures would help here My Papal States coin collection: https://diadumenian.com/Papal%20Sta...0States.html Medieval coins collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Europe.html Indian Rupee Collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Rupees.html Minor world Silver: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...20coins.html Report this Post to the Staff
maridvnvm Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2121 Posts	Posted 12/18/2008 04:38 am I have been thinking the same as Bacchus but the images are too poor to be conclusive. It could be a worn, porous, over-cleaned example or it could be a cast reproduction. Martin Report this Post to the Staff
