<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rexesq, post: 1222039, member: 5739&quot;]Hi, I got this Gordian III coin for a very reasonable price, I love the reverse. It was sold as being from an &#039;Eastern mint&#039; and it looks like it to me, when I look at the style of the lettering used in the titles, specifically the letter &#039;M&#039; on the obverse in the &#039;M ANT GORDIANUS&#039; part of the titles.</p><p>But I was wondering if any of you guys knew specifically which Eastern mint this is from, or if it is unknown to all? Any help would be appreciated.... this is the seller&#039;s pic, it doesn&#039;t show how nice the reverse really is, I will try to take some new ones myself this week, and post them here in this thread.</p><p><br /></p><p>---------</p><p>Ancient Roman Empire</p><p>Emperor Gordian III (238 - 244 AD)</p><p>Silver Antoninianus, Eastern Mint.</p><p><br /></p><p>obv: IMP CAES M ANT GORDIANUS AUG - Radiate bust right, draped and cuirassed.</p><p><br /></p><p>rev: AEQUITAS AUG - Aequitas standing holding scales and cornucopia.</p><p><br /></p><p>4.44 grams</p><p>---------</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
