| Reversbeschreibung | Emperor Gordian III, radiate and in military attire, depicted as an equestrian hero galloping to the right upon a prancing horse. The emperor thrusts a spear downward with his extended right hand in a dynamic martial pose, evoking the iconography of the triumphant Roman imperator. The Greek civic ethnic legend of the issuing city is distributed around the field and lower reverse. The composition reflects the vigorous provincial die-cutting tradition of Odessos during the Gordian period. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Odessos, the Black Sea port city on Moesia Inferior's eastern coast, struck an unusually large volume of provincial bronze under Gordian III — the young emperor who came to power at fifteen after the brief joint reign of his father and grandfather both collapsed within weeks in 238. That chaotic year saw six emperors; the civic mints of the Danubian and Pontic regions kept issuing regardless, their local magistrates answerable more to commercial continuity than to imperial politics.
The ΟΔΗϹϹΕΙΤΩΝ legend reflects the city's own Hellenized civic identity, standard for Moesian provincial issues but worth noting as a record of municipal autonomy in coinage that Rome tolerated in the Greek East.
