Julius Germanicus Posted 15 hours ago · Member Share Posted 15 hours ago (edited) The OP coin was struck with an obverse die of Gordian I. It is without doubt Gordian I we see. The Victoria reverse was almost exclusively used for Gordian I on Sestertii, struck for Gordian II with only a single obverse die, which is certainly not this one.
