<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ardatirion, post: 1058413, member: 9204&quot;]Very true. But I wouldn&#039;t say the traditional sources of studies are slowing up, rather they&#039;re focusing on different things. General catalogs are not in vogue right now - this is why we haven&#039;t seen many books or articles on the varieties of bust types on the coinage of Probus, or minor variations in the fallen horseman series. Most institutions seem to be spending their effort on either die studies or grand corpus&#039;, such as the RPC. </p><p><br /></p><p>Fortunately, there is something on Gordian III that I had forgotten about! Michel Prieur organized Gordian&#039;s coinage at Rome for CGB&#039;s Rome VII sale. <a href="http://www.cgb.fr/monnaies/rome/r07/index.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.cgb.fr/monnaies/rome/r07/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.cgb.fr/monnaies/rome/r07/index.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Your coin:</p><p>Rome mint, 1st emission, 6th officina.
