Came across these three provincial pieces with reverses depicting emperors standing on pedestals. There is some disagreement in describing these as some say it is a "statue" of the emperor on the pedestal, where others just describe them as the emperor himself. Not sure which is correct but both arguments have some merit. Anyways, here they are: 1. Gordian III, Antiochia Pisidia (32mm, 23.5gms) Obv: Bust of Gordian right Rev: CAES ANTIOCH COL / SR; Gordian, standing right holding Nike, clasping hand with Genius standing left with scepter; altar between 2. Trajan Ae : Amphipolis Macedon (18mm, 4.3gms) Obv: Emperor standing left on pedestal raising right hand and holding parazonium in left Rev: Artemis Tauropolos with billowing sail seated side-saddle on bull galloping right 3. Augustus Ae : Philippi Macedon (22mm, 7.3gms) Obv: Laureate bust right Rev: AVG DIVI F DIVO IVL; Statue of Augustus standing left, raising hand, crowned by statue of Divus Julius; both standing on a central base
