| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Emperor Gordian III facing right, depicted from the front with visible paludamentum and segmented cuirass. The imperial effigy is rendered in the typical Alexandrian provincial style, with bold, slightly stylized features characteristic of mid-third century Egyptian coinage. A circular Greek legend surrounds the bust within the field, reading the emperor's titulature. |
