In an article by J. Y. Akerman (Num. Chron. iv. p. 97) is the following inscription:—

Obv. Head of Antoninus Pius.

Rev.. Apollo Embasius of the Ephesians. A galley. (Vaillant, Num. Graeca.)

On turning to Vaillant's work, p. 291, I find the coin referred to by Akerman quite differently described:—

. Apollo stans nudus, dextrâ demissâ sinistro cubito columnae imposito, telum gerit: ex adverso Diana Venatricis habitu, dextrâ pariter demissâ, sinistrâ jaculum tenet. Num. Antmiini Pii. Apollinis fuit cognomen, hoc est, ascendens navim, &c.

Eckhel also cites Vaillant's description and remarks (ii. 516), ‘Apollonius Lib. I. Argonauticorum saepius meminit et quem venerati sunt Argonautae velut qui tueretur eos qui ad iter maritimum accincti ingrediuntur navim, praestaretque salvos egredi. Numen urbi opportunum cujus amplum fuit mari commercium.’
