| Beschrijving voorzijde | Youthful head of Pan in left profile, rendered with fine naturalistic detail. The deity is distinguished by a small curved goat's horn emerging from the upper forehead, a characteristic attribute of Pan. The hair is rendered in tightly clustered curls arranged across the crown, transitioning to longer wavy locks falling behind the neck. The facial features are modelled with high artistic quality typical of fourth-century BC Greek coinage, with a well-defined profile, slightly parted lips, and a serene expression. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lampsakos held a privileged position on the Hellespont, controlling one of the most strategically critical straits in the ancient world, and its gold coinage reflects sustained access to Lydian and Persian-sourced bullion throughout the fourth century. The city struck under Persian suzerainty following the King's Peace of 387 BC — the very date that brackets this type — which formalized Achaemenid dominance over the Greek cities of Asia Minor and effectively licensed their continued commercial activity, coinage included.
Production ceased abruptly with Alexander's crossing into Asia in 334 BC.
