Hello Martin,
it's better to post smaller pictures so people can see the coin at a glance, especially if the condition is,
let's say, less than perfect.

Hello Martin,
I'm not sure for Gordian, maybe it is still possible to see the name of Philippus at 12 : so it could be SNG France, 2, 1738-1739 for Philippus I (244-249).
Reverse legend should be ΤΑΡΣΟΥ ΜΗΤΡΟΠΟΛΕΩΣ ΑΜΚ ΓΒ.

Clearly not a Gordian coin, we can see the  :Greek_Lambda: just over the head of ruler.  I also think Philippus
