Beschrijving keerzijde Pegasus in full flight to the right, depicted with outstretched wings and forelegs extended, rendered in a bold if somewhat stylized Greco-Iberian manner. The head of the winged horse is distinctively modified in the local Emporitani style, diverging from the more naturalistic Greek prototypes. A small symbol or control mark appears in the lower field below the creature. The ethnic legend ΕΜΠΟΡΙΤΩΝ is inscribed around or below the figure, identifying the issuing community. The composition closely follows the Pegasus type adopted by Emporion from its Greek colonial heritage.

Aanvullende informatie

Emporion — modern Empúries on the Catalan coast — was a Phocaean Greek foundation that maintained its minting operation well into the Roman period, making it one of the longest-lived colonial mints on the Iberian peninsula. These drachms were struck at a time when the city was navigating an uneasy coexistence with Rome following the Second Punic War, during which Emporion had served as the principal Roman landing point for the campaign against Carthaginian forces in Hispania.

The weight standard follows the reduced Iberian-Greek drachm, lighter than metropolitan Greek issues, calibrated for local trade networks rather than Mediterranean exchange.
