| Obverse description | Bare-headed and draped bust of Gordian III as Caesar facing right, with drapery visible on the left shoulder. The portrait is rendered in the provincial style typical of Bithynian civic coinage of the mid-third century AD. A circular Greek legend surrounds the effigy in the field. The coin's surface is heavily patinated and worn, obscuring finer engraving details. |
