The obverse of this provincial issue displays the profile bust of the young emperor Gordian III. On the reverse, the design typically features the classic Roman eagle, a powerful symbol of imperial authority. This particular specimen has survived the centuries in a certified Very Fine state of preservation, offering a tangible connection to the administration of the Roman East.
