| Obverse description | Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Gordian III facing right, depicted as a youthful emperor with finely rendered curled hair. The bust is shown with paludamentum fastened at the shoulder, reflecting the imperial military iconography standard to provincial bronze coinage of the period. A dotted border frames the design. The Greek imperial titulature legend runs clockwise around the periphery of the obverse field. |
