Watch List notes:

MYSIA. Lampsacus. Valerian, 253-260. (Bronze, 24 mm, 6.74 g, 6 h), Daphnos, magistrate. AVT K Π ΛI OVAΛEPIANOC Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Valerian to right. Rev. EΠI ΔAΦN / OV – ΛAMΨAKH / NΩ Ithyphallic Priapos standing to left, holding cantharus over flaming altar to his left with his right hand, and thyrsos in his left hand. BMC -. SNG Copenhagen 244 (same reverse die). SNG von Aulock -. Very rare, and this the best specimen known. Good very fine.



SNG Copenhagen describes the reverse legend as EΠI ΔAΦN / OV – ΛAMΨAKH / NΩN. However, our coin - apparently from the same reverse die - clearly shows, that the legend reads EΠI ΔAΦN / OV – ΛAMΨAKH / NΩ. The mistake is probably due to the bad state of preservation of the Copenhagen specimen.
