Message:: [QUOTE="Roman Collector, post: 3091033, member: 75937"]As you know, I like these marriage issues of Gordian III and Tranquillina. This one is an architectural issue, too. From <a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=Gordian+Tranquillina+tyche+Marcianopolis&category=1-2&en=1&de=1&fr=1&it=1&es=1&ot=1&images=1&thesaurus=1&order=0&currency=usd&company=" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?term=Gordian+Tranquillina+tyche+Marcianopolis&category=1-2&en=1&de=1&fr=1&it=1&es=1&ot=1&images=1&thesaurus=1&order=0&currency=usd&company=" rel="nofollow">what I can tell</a>, it looks like all of these were produced from a single pair of dies. Post anything you feel is relevant!
