| Beschrijving keerzijde | Hermes standing left in full figure, nude save for chlamys, extending his right hand to hold a purse and grasping a caduceus in his left hand. At his feet to the lower left, a ram is depicted in a recumbent or standing pose, serving as the god's sacred attribute. The civic ethnic legend of Acmonea is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing authority. The composition is characteristic of provincial bronze coinage from Phrygia, with Hermes frequently honored as a deity of commerce and trade. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Acmonea was a Phrygian city whose civic coinage under Gordian III reflects the intense local competition for imperial favor during his reign — municipalities across the Conventus of Apamea struck bronze specifically to circulate the emperor's image and reinforce their own status within the Roman administrative framework. The city's coins from this period are notably scarce, and the reference series cataloguing them remained incomplete well into the late twentieth century.
