| Beschrijving keerzijde | A ship's prow facing right occupies the centre of the field, depicted in profile with characteristic naval ram and upper deck details including a curved stern ornament (aplustre). The surrounding Latin legend names the two duoviri responsible for the colonial dedication: Q LVCRETI above and L PONTI to the left, with IIVIR COL DED PR distributed around and below the prow, referencing their role as duoviri of the deducted colony. The type evokes Roman naval and colonial imagery appropriate to a Caesarian-era foundation. |

Lampsacus, on the Hellespont's eastern shore, received its colonial status as part of Caesar's broader reorganization of the region — one of several Caesarian foundations in Asia Minor intended to anchor Roman civic infrastructure along strategically critical straits. The duoviri named in the legend, Lucretius and Pontius, are local magistrates of the new colony exercising the coinage privilege that came with their office, a right tightly bound to the colonial charter itself.
The Janus type is notably conservative for a colonial foundation of this date, drawing on a specifically Roman religious iconography rather than anything local to Lampsacus's long Greek history.
