Lot 1375
Gordian III, 238-244.
Antoninianus (Silver, 21 mm, 4.39 g, 11 h), Antiochia, 239. IMP CAES M ANT GORDIANVS AVG Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust of Gordian III to right, seen from behind.
Rev.
P M TR P II COS P P / AVG Gordian III, veiled and togate, driving slow triumphal quadriga to left, holding patera in his right hand and short scepter in his left. Bland -. R. Bland: An imperial visit to Antioch in AD 239, in: Mélanges Amandry (2017), p. 352, 1.1 (
this coin
). Cohen -. Michaux 519 (

nearly extremely fine.
From the collection of Dipl.-Ing. Adrian Lang, ex Numismatica Ars Classica 64, 17 May 2012, 1243.
