| Obverse description | Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gordian III facing right, rendered from a rear three-quarter perspective, emphasising the paludamentum and military cuirass. The imperial titulature legend encircles the effigy in Greek characters. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features associated with Gordian III's coinage, executed in the provincial workshop style. The flan shows a dark olive-green patina with typical surface corrosion consistent with a hammered provincial bronze issue. |
