<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pellinore, post: 3191900, member: 74834&quot;]This is a rare Gordian III Caesar tetradrachm. Gordian was caesar only for a short time. And you see that his portrait shows no personality - in his troubled times there was no official portrait yet. I suppose all the years A of the various emperors and naturally also their last years may be rarer than the other years. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]824205[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Tetradrachm Gordian III (238-244) as Caesar, Alexandria.
