| Aversbeschreibung | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gordian III facing right, depicted in three-quarter view from the front, with a gorgoneion (Medusa head apotropaic device) prominently displayed on the cuirass. The imperial effigy is rendered in the provincial style characteristic of the Ephesian mint under the Severan-era conventions carried into the reign of Gordian III. The encircling Greek legend names the emperor in the nominative, identifying him by his full imperial titulature. The portrait conveys the youthful features associated with Gordian III's numismatic type throughout his reign. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Homonoia type depicting Androklos, the mythological founder of Ephesus, standing right, clad in hunting garb and holding a spear; at his feet lies the head of a boar, alluding to the founding legend of Ephesus. Androklos clasps hands in a dextrarum iunctio gesture with Alexander, the eponymous hero of Alexandria, who stands facing left and holds a sceptre; at his feet stands a lighted altar. The scene symbolises the formal concord (homonoia) struck between the cities of Ephesus and Alexandria. The encircling Greek legend proclaims this alliance explicitly, and the composition is a fine example of the civic homonoia coinage prevalent in Asia Minor during the Severan and Gordian periods. |
