| Obverse description | Radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gordian III facing right, depicted from the rear, with the radiate crown clearly visible above the head. The emperor's paludamentum and scale armour are rendered in relief, conveying imperial military dignity. A Greek legend encircles the bust within a beaded border, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. The portrait displays the youthful features characteristic of Gordian III's provincial coinage, executed in the provincial Greek style typical of Phrygian civic issues. |
