Big headed Alien

I think this coin is proof Aliens landed here in antiquity, and, in fact, one became emperor of Rome. Don't all aliens have big heads like this?


Now compare:



Supposedly this is Gordian III, but I wonder......

GORDIAN III
AR Antoninianus
OBVERSE: IMP CAES M ANT GORDIANVS AVG, radiate, draped & cuirassed bust right
REVERSE: VICTORIA AVG, Victory advancing left with wreath & palm
Struck at Rome, June 12, 238-Dec 238 AD (1st Issue, 6th officina)
4.2g, 21mm
RIC I viii, 5, page 16 - Cohen 357

Note: This is another of my March Madness buys. I think I have two more. I really went nuts.

Lol, that does look like the cartoon. Some engravings are amusing.

 

I never shy away from a nice Gordian ant, even though they're among the most common of Romans. Evidently he had a longish head, as the portrayal on your coin is by no means an exception. The crown and his long nose add to the effect. Here's one of my favorites...

 

The big-headed alien coin should be added to this TIF "Totally looks like" thread: https://www.cointalk.com/threads/just-for-fun-totally-looks-like-thread.238718/page-4#post-1816186

 

Ill just share my denarius instead of the usual Ant.

 

Of course, my Antoninianus of Gordianus displays all those characteristics as well.

 

Try the attachment again Mikey.

 

See what happens when you have on the wrong eyeglasses LOL

 

Nice new addition, Bing. That nose is super big too. lol

 

ahahaha => great thread, Big-bro ... oh, and awesome portrait!!

Yah, sadly my three examples aren't nearly as amusing as your neat addition!!





... hmmm although, that 3rd example does have a bit of an extra-forehead

Hey, I'm a total fan of extra-forehead, my friend!!

 

I'll bet you are. Growing right out of your hair are we?

 

Sadly, I've always been the kid with the big forehead ... but thanks (my therapist will send you the bill)



... *sigh* ...

Gordian III and I are "not" impressed!!

(*whatev*)

 

Not a problem. It's always best if we confront these issues "head" on (hehe).

 

Not a problem, Big-brother ...

Hey, let's settle it like the lesbians would settle it!!

No, not that way (although, interesting)

=> how 'bout a good ol' head-butting contest?



dawg => you don't wanna f with this Gordian-III skull o' mine!!

... Darwin/evolution has prepared me for this fight ...

However ..........

*bring it *

 

U N C L E

 

... was I Scott Farkus? (man, I hate Scott Farkus)

 

You pick.

 

ehhhh ... hey, let's just raise a toast "to RRs"

Cheers, my friend (I love coining with you!!)

"salute"

 

Prost und nach einmal mein Freund

 

FYI-Side-note => that confronted bulls coin is also considered

=> one "panther head/skin"




... what do you guys think? (two confronted boars, or one panther skin?)
