[QUOTE="Roman Collector, post: 3995201, member: 75937"]Hi, [USER=103829]@Jochen1[/USER] , I hope you don't mind me resurrecting this thread, but I am having difficulty finding this exact reverse die in online references. It is similar to AMNG I 2104, Moushmov 1488, and Varbanov 4146a, but it has different legend breaks and peculiar ligatures in its reverse die. Do you have a reference for this exact reverse die? [ATTACH=full]1051892[/ATTACH] Gordian III, AD 238-244. Roman provincial Æ 27 mm. Moesia Inferior, Nicopolis ad Istrum, Sabinius Modestus, [I]legatus consularis[/I], AD 241-244.

It appears to be a double die-match to [URL='https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5076804']this one[/URL], which CNG attributes to H&J 8.36.22.3. Is this a correct attribution???
