Near VF, brown surfaces, minor roughness.
An extremely rare and interesting type. The designs on the coinage of Perge are principally devoted to religious subjects, particularly to Artemis, who had an important cult center at Perge. This galley type, very reminiscent of ships on some Hadrianic sestertii, presumably alludes to the importance of Perge as a center of maritime trade. We see the type repeated on an equally rare issue of Septimius Severus (see here).

Perge (AD 253-268) AE 29 - Gallienus476 viewsGallienus, 253-268 AD. AE29 (15.27g).

About VF, some roughness. Hoeft coll.
Artemis Pergeia, a pre-hellenic goddess, called in Pampylian dialect Vanassa Preiia, was one of the most important deities in the eastern Mediterranean. Its cult statue is known only from coins. The statue was hidden in a gold covered shrine. Ca 80 BC it was looted by the notorious Verres, Quaestor of Cilicia. M.T. Cicero included it in his inquiry after Verres' misdeeds in 79 BC (see Cicero 'In C. Verrem'). No remnants of the famous temple have been found.

Perge (AD 253-268) AE 34 – Gallienus & Salonina638 viewsGallienus, with Salonina, 253-268 AD. AE34 - Decassarion (21.09g, 5h). Struck during the 260th or 261st Olympiad (261-268 AD). Diademed and draped bust of Salonina right, and radiate and draped bust of Gallienus left, vis-à -vis; I (mark of value) between / Prize crown with palm fronds set on table; crown inscribed OΛVM/ΠIA; table inscribed AVΓOVCTIA; ЄIC/AΓΩN in two lines below. VF, mottled red-brown patina. Rare. Ex Wagner Coll.
From the inscription on the prize crown, this coin was struck to commemorate a victory achieved by athletes from Perge in a series of games. The question is to what games do the rev. inscriptions refer? The table inscription possibly cites the great Augusteian-Italian-Roman Games, instituted in 2 BC and held every four years (cf. P. Lond. III 1178, ll. 37-83). The prize crown inscription only seems to complicate the issue. Either it is meant to be taken in connection with the table inscription, and thus the whole may refer to the composite games known as the Augusteia Hadriana Olympia, games known elsewhere in Asia Minor, or the inscription may more likely refer specifically to the panhellenic Olympic Games, held at Olympia every four years since 776 BC.
