Common priesthood probably refers to the priesthood of all believers and is conferred at baptism. Each individual Christian is baptized as a priest, prophet, and king, and, as a priest, is empowered to offer sacrifice to God. This is not the same as the ministerial priesthood, which offers the one sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, but is the common priesthood of all baptized Christians who offer the sacrifice of their lives to be crucified with Jesus, as they deny themselves to follow him.

The priesthood was after the order of God, it is referred to the High Priesthood which is the same as God holds. Rather than refer to it as The Priesthood of God, thereby using the name of God in vain, it was called after the order of Melchizeddek who also held the high priesthood.
There are actually only two priesthoods, the first is the Aaronic named after the brother of Moses, Aaron. Within that priesthood are three offices that of Deacon, Teacher and Priest. The other priesthood or higher priesthood is the Melchizadeck priesthood named after the righteous king of the same name. Within that higher priesthood one may hold the office of Elder or High Priest.
