Hmmm, it seems that the #RomanEmperor #Sponsianus that I told you about last week didn't exist, and his coins are 18th-century forgeries after all. The research that declared them genuine was sloppy, and proved nothing.
So scrap Sponsianus off of your list of Roman Emperors. Fake news.
Pity, it was a good story. And some 3rd-century Emperors *are* only known by their coins, so it was not inherently unbelievable.
