Another new addition to my collection. I think it is a Gordonian III silver (or silver wash) Antoninianii? can anyone add anything else?

Maybe you could start uploading them here...

It's easiest. Since the attachments don't work anymore.

Nice coin. The thumbnails seem to be working perfectly now.

Not in firefox they don't.

You'll just have to change, Tiff!

No way, IE sucks.

The use of thumbnails on this forum is really annoying because none of the mozilla based browsers seem to work. I have to switch to IE to see 'em. Not `cool' with me either.

Frightening!

If you link in a picture or respond with the legend I can give you a slightly more detailed attribution

Silver Antoninianus (aka `double denarius') of Emperor Gordian III as Augustus (238 - 244 AD).

Your one appears to have Gordian stabding holding a spear and globe (reverse) which would make it either RIC 92 or 93. I can't quite make out the legend in full.

I can make out P.M. TR. P. then i'm not sure if that is a V or II followed by ?

Either way it is one of the more common Gordian III antoninianii. They sell on ebay for circa $30 - $40. There's three main obverse legends and numerous reverses to collect. Would make quite a collection to have them all.

It's a pain in the a$$, but there is a work-around for seeing the images in Firefox (I use it, too). Right click on the small attachment, and "view image". when it brings up the thumbnail image, just delete the "_thumb" from the URL, and viola, image. definitely a pain, but if you really want to see the image.

or I could just put the image in-line for you....

I don't understand why the pictures aren't working for everyone? In future I might download them to omnicoin then add a link to them.

It's the different way different browsers are coded.
