| Beschrijving voorzijde | Veiled bust of the goddess Demeter facing left, depicted in draped fashion with a veil covering her head; she holds two ears of corn and a cornucopia, attributes emblematic of her divine role as goddess of the harvest. The bust is rendered in the provincial Greek style typical of Smyrnaean civic coinage of the mid-third century AD. A circular legend surrounds the bust within a beaded border. The overall composition is characteristic of the high artistic standards maintained by the Smyrna mint during the Gordian III period. |

| Opschrift voorzijde | ϹΜΥΡΝΑΙΩΝ ΠΡΩΤΩΝ ΑϹΙΑϹ (Translation: of the Smyrnaeans, first (city) of Asia) |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | Amazon Smyrna, the eponymous founder of the city, standing left in full figure, clad in short chiton and chlamys; she holds a patera in her extended right hand and a double axe (labrys) and pelta (crescent shield) in her left, with the chlamys draped over her arm. At her feet to the left appears a ship's prow, symbolising Smyrna's maritime prominence. The figure is rendered with confident provincial workmanship, and the composition underscores Smyrna's civic pride and mythological heritage. A circular magistrate's legend occupies the field surrounding the figure. |
