| Obverse description | Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gordian III facing right, depicted from behind (rear view), with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder and segmented cuirass detailing across the chest. The imperial effigy is rendered in the typical provincial workshop style of Asia Minor, with a beaded border encircling the field. The surrounding Greek legend reads ΑΥΤ Κ Μ ΑΝΤ ΓΟΡΔΙΑΝΟϹ, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. |
