Description

This silver Denarius of Gordian III, the youngest sole Roman emperor, dates to the Crisis of the Third Century—a period marked by external threats and internal strife. Despite his youth, Gordian’s coinage is renowned for its elegant portraiture and refined craftsmanship. This example, minted in Rome between AD 238–244, displays a remarkably preserved imperial bust and crisp legends, meriting a Mint State grade from NGC. An excellent choice for those interested in early imperial coinage and the resilience of Rome during turbulent times.
