| Obverse lettering | ΑΥΤ Κ Μ ΑΝΤΩ ΓΟΡΔΙΑΝΟϹ (Translation: Emperor Caesar Marcus Antonius Gordianus) |
| Reverse description | Asclepius, the god of medicine, depicted standing facing, his body clad in a long himation with deeply incised drapery folds characteristic of provincial Syrian die-cutting. He holds his emblematic serpent-entwined staff (the caduceus of Asclepius) in his right hand, the coiled serpent rising alongside the staff. The ethnic legend of the issuing city encircles the figure within a dotted border. |
