| Obverse lettering | ΑΥΤ Κ ΠΟ ΛΙΚ ΟΥΑΛΕΡΙΑΝΟϹ (Translation: Emperor Caesar Publius Licinius Valerianus) |
| Reverse description | The lunar deity Mên depicted standing to the left, holding a patera in the extended right hand and a tall sceptre in the left. The figure is characteristic of the Anatolian cult of Mên, widely venerated in the Ionian cities during the Imperial period. The divided legend naming the local archon Iulius Saturninus and the civic ethnic of the Prieneans is distributed across the field. The type reflects the autonomy of Priene in issuing civic bronze coinage under the supervision of a named magistrate. |
