| Obverse description | Confronted busts of Emperor Gordian III, laureate, draped and cuirassed, facing right as seen from the front, jugate with Sarapis, draped and wearing a modius crown, facing left, with a cornucopia positioned behind his left shoulder. The obverse legend encircles the paired imperial and divine effigies, identifying the emperor by his full titulature. The composition reflects the syncretistic religious traditions of the Pontic city of Odessus, emphasizing the close association between the reigning emperor and the tutelary deity of the city. |
