One coin sold the 02/11/2011 by Dr. Busso Peus Nachfolger, Auction 404, lot 2649, link to the sale: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1124095.

I noticed a reverse die link between two sestertii of Balbinus and Pupienus (reverse without legend break AYC #26, RIC 25) ). The reverse die is different from the coin shown here. Here are the two coins:
