| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gordian III facing right, rendered from a rear three-quarter perspective, emphasizing the paludamentum and cuirass. The imperial effigy is portrayed in the prevailing Roman provincial style of the mid-third century AD. The surrounding field carries the Greek imperial titulature legend, partially legible due to wear. The portraiture displays the characteristically youthful features associated with Gordian III's official imagery. |

The date ΕΤ ΡΟΗ — year 208 of the Pontic era — places this coin squarely in 241–242 AD, the same period Gordian III was campaigning against Shapur I on the eastern frontier. Neocaesarea, as the leading city of Pontus and holder of neokoros status, issued civic bronzes with considerable autonomy during imperial campaigns, when the emperor's attention and administrative bandwidth were stretched thin.
SNG BM Black Sea 1402–1403 documents the type with minor die variations across the pair.
