[QUOTE="Severus Alexander, post: 3052859, member: 84744"]WOW!! Fantastic stuff!! (Including the writeup.) I have been Balbinusless these past 30 years as a collector of Roman coins, but I do have a mediocre Pupienus: [ATTACH=full]764247[/ATTACH] Also greatly envious of your Gordian III as Caesar, [USER=19463]@dougsmit[/USER]. These have commanded enough of premium in recent auctions that my several attempts to snag one have been resoundingly foiled. The obligatory roach (which I'm rather fond of): [ATTACH=full]764248[/ATTACH] You may be interested in Oxford professor Harry Sidebottom's series [I][URL='http://www.harrysidebottom.co.uk/book-categories/throne-of-the-caesars/']Throne of the Caesars[/URL][/I], which covers exactly this period. Great books![/QUOTE]
