Help Gordian III Sestertius
Tanit:
Hi,
This Gordian III Sestertius is the RIC IV 302. In the notes RIC writes: "Specimens on large and heavy flans in BM and HP Hall coll.".
This sestertius weighs 28.32 g. and measures 35 mm.
Does anyone have a link that shows the specimens of the sestertius from the BM or Hall coll. mentioned in the RIC?
Thanks

The style is so bizarre on that I doubt the authenticity of the coin.

This is by the same hand as the other sestertius I expressed concerns about. Appears to be a modern tooling or hand carving workshop.....
