<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Drusus, post: 413518, member: 6370&quot;]I dont think the shield being sightly more round would change the type as long as all the same devices are there in the same way...portrait points the right way and dressed the right way...inscriptions the same with the same breaks. That kind of thing...Different engravers, different engravings that are slightly different will effect the portrait, look and style. But the devices set the type</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I think Gordian III coins are undervalued by collectors...I think they have some of the best portrait work...the one below is a great example. It has legend errors but the portrait is so well done.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/gordian_III/RIC_0070note-o.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /><img src="http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/gordian_III/RIC_0070note-r.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This coin is also an RIC 70 (with error) like the one above, obviously a completely different style.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
