Ancient silver coin from Cyrene depicting a seed/fruit of silphium
Il silfio d’oro reciso di Cirenaica
Silphium depicted on the arms of Italian Libya.

Silphium (also known as silphion, laserwort, or laser) was a plant that was used in classical antiquity as a seasoning and as a medicine. It was the essential item of trade from the ancient North African city of Cyrene, and was so critical to the Cyrenian economy that most of their coins bore a picture of the plant. The valuable product was the plant's resin (laser, laserpicium, or lasarpicium).
