<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 2841717, member: 76194&quot;]I believe yours might be RSC IV 299a, and the RIC reference is RIC 194.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was minted between 238-240 CE as per the legend in the obverse which I believe is the &quot;Imp. Caes. M. Ant. Gordianvs Avg&quot; type. Although the full legend in the reverse is not preserved, it should read &quot;Providentia Avg,&quot; and features Providentia holding scepter and pointing baton at globe (the little round blob by her feet).</p><p><br /></p><p>Not rare but not common either, and definitely an early Gordian, which makes it that much cooler.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mine, although it has the same reverse, due to the legend in the obverse is from much later (240-244 CE).</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]672452[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, congrats on your earlier Gordian III coinage. There is a chance Balbinus and Pupianus were still Co-Emperors with Gordian III when yours was struck. It&#039;s fascinating thinking about that.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
