<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 4905153, member: 97383&quot;]Ocat., This looks like a wonderful book for the Gordian III specialist &amp; the price of 40 Euros is a bargain <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Are there English descriptions <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie12" alt="o_O" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />? At that price I assume the book is soft cover <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie12" alt="o_O" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />? I&#039;m posting two Gordian III bronzes that have been posted before but never seen together. They make an interesting comparison. The sestertius from the Rome Mint has excellent die work &amp; the coin from Pisidia has amateurish die work bordering on folk art, yet it is well struck on a round flan &amp; is hefty compared to the sestertius. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1183335[/ATTACH] </p><p><b>Gordian III, AD 238-244, AE Sestertius: 31 mm, 20.63 gm, 11 h.
