[QUOTE="Clavdivs, post: 3250496, member: 93702"]Great first auction... it was a little too close to Christmas for me to bid too much. One of my bids did hold as I picked up this Gordian III for $20.. pretty excited. I bid on this coin because I do not have one for this ruler - although I have been looking for awhile - they are usually very reasonable but this price was excellent. I also really liked the AETERNITATI AVG reverse legend - which is also a first for my collection. I look forward to getting the coin in hand and learning more about it. *When the date is announced for the next auction I will start to put a few bucks away and take a run at a few more.. excellent experience. [ATTACH=full]852759[/ATTACH] Gordian III (238-244), AR Denarius, issued 240. Rome, 2.78g, 19mm. Obv: IMP GORDIANVS PIVS FEL AVG; laureate bust right. Rev: AETERNITATI AVG, Sol stg. right, head left, with upraised hand and holding globe[/QUOTE]
