Lampsakos (AD 249-251) AE 21

Trajan Decius, 249-251 AD. AE21 (4.15g). AVT KOI TPAIAN ΔEK[IOC], draped, laureate bust right / ΛANVAKHN / [Ω]N - EΠI AΠOΛΛ[ΩN?] - ETOV, Priapos standing left, draped from hips, showing Ithyphallos, holding Thyrsos left and Kantharos right. Very rare, F+/-VF. Hoeft coll.

ΛAN erroneous for ΛAM, but there are some open questions too: KOI seems to be erroneous for KAI, magistrate AΠOΛΛΩNITOC couldn't be found until now. Priapos was born by Aphrodite in Lampsakos. Therefore Lampsakos was the centre of warshipping of Priapos. Here his depiction was more like Dionysos who was said to be his father.
