[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 4678723, member: 110226"]Here are a couple of more Gordian bronze provincial coins. This coin was purchased post-auction. I was a bit surprised that it did not receive any bids. I guess this was due to the crude strike and somewhat rough surfaces. Still, it is a very interesting coin, with the agonistic table on the reverse. Gordian III Æ29 of Anchialus, Thrace. AD 238-244. AVT K M ANT ΓOPΔIANOC AVΓ, radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right / OVΛΠIANΩN AΓXIAΛЄΩN, agonistic table surmounted by prize urn containing two palms, and two purses; amphora below, E in exergue. Corpus Nummorum Online 5851. 13.50g, 30mm, 6h. Near Very Fine. [IMG]https://www.romanumismatics.com/catalogue_images/auction/xlarge/15815.2.18_1.jpg[/IMG] The other coin came out of auction recently. This coin is almost medallic in appearance. Gordian III Æ34 of Antioch, Pisidia. AD 238-244. IMP CAES M ANT GORDIANVS AVG, laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right / CAES ANTIOCH COL, Lupa Romana standing to right below Ficus Ruminalis, head left, suckling twins Romulus and Remus; SR in exergue. Krzyzanovska dies XII/64; SNG France 1196 (same obv. die); SNG Copenhagen 69. 26.82g, 33mm, 8h. Good Very Fine.
