Æ24 - Gordian III ϹΕΒΑϹΤΗΝΩΝ

Sebaste was a Phrygian city whose civic coinage under Gordian III falls within the Conventus of Apamea, one of the administrative districts Rome used to organize assize courts across the province of Asia. The city struck relatively few types for Gordian's reign, and VII.1#738B is among the scarcer varieties recorded for this issuer — the reference itself carries a "B" suffix indicating a die variant distinguished within the primary corpus.
