Furia Sabinia Tranquillina was the wife of Gordian III. She survived her murdered husband, but her subsequent lot in life and the period of her death remain equally without record.
This coin from Deultum presents the only affordable way for a collector to obtain a coin of Tranquillina with Latin legends, without needing to spend a fortune for an antoninianus.
