| Obverse description | Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gordian III facing right, rendered in three-quarter view from the rear, a presentation typical of provincial coinage of the period. The imperial effigy displays the paludamentum over the cuirass, with the laurel wreath clearly indicated. The encircling Greek legend identifies the emperor by his full titulature. The flan is irregular and the surfaces heavily worn, with the portrait preserved in low relief. |
