| Beschrijving keerzijde | Dionysus, nude, standing facing with head turned to the left, his weight resting on his right leg in a relaxed contrapposto stance. In his right hand he holds a thyrsus, the staff of fennel topped with a pine cone emblematic of his cult, while his left hand tilts an oinochoe from which wine pours downward toward a panther crouching at his feet. The reverse legend in the exergual field and periphery identifies the issuing city. |

Priene had been in slow economic decline since the Hellenistic period, its harbor silted beyond recovery by the Maeander delta long before this coin was struck. That the city still produced civic bronze under the joint reign of Valerian and Gallienus — an administratively fractious co-emperorship split between the Rhine frontier and the Persian wars — speaks to how tenaciously small Ionian cities clung to the privilege of local coinage even as the imperial mint system increasingly crowded them out.
