<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bing, post: 3093178, member: 44132&quot;]Most of you know I have been actively seeking the last two MA Legionary denarii for my collection.&nbsp; So much so, I have neglected, for the most part, the rest of my collecting interest.&nbsp; Well, I am trying to get out of this rut, so I&#039;ve purchased a couple of other coins.&nbsp; The first I will present here.&nbsp; It&#039;s another Gordian III with a reverse I did not have for this emperor.&nbsp; Not only was the price right, but I liked the reverse detail.&nbsp; I will show my ignorance, but the &quot;straps&quot; hanging from the waist ( I do not know the actual name of the garment) seems to be easily identifiable.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]781041[/ATTACH] </p><p>GORDIAN III</p><p>AR Antoninianus</p><p>OBVERSE: IMP GORDIANVS PIVS FEL AVG, radiate, draped &amp; cuirassed bust right</p><p>REVERSE: PM TR P IIII COS II P P, Gordian in military dress, standing right with spear &amp; globe</p><p>Struck at Rome, 241 AD </p><p>5.50g, 24mm</p><p>RIC IV iii, 92, page 25 - Cohen 253[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
