Beschrijving voorzijde Radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gordian III facing right, viewed from the front, with the radiate crown rendered as a series of pointed rays encircling the head. The portrait displays the characteristic youthful features associated with Gordian III, with visible paludamentum at the shoulder. The encircling Greek legend occupies the field around the bust, partially legible on this heavily worn specimen.

Beschrijving keerzijde Pan, the rustic deity, depicted standing to the left in a naturalistic pose, holding a branch in one hand and a wineskin in the other, reflecting his association with nature and revelry. To the right of Pan stands a herm of Priapus, the ithyphallic deity, rendered as a term or pillar surmounted by a bearded head. The composition is typical of Bithynian provincial coinage celebrating local and Pan-Hellenic religious iconography. The reverse field is largely devoid of legend, with the ethnic inscription confined to the exergual or peripheral area. The die work, though worn, reflects competent provincial engraving in the tradition of Nicaean civic bronze coinage.
