| Obverse description | Forepart of Pegasus prancing to right, with elaborately rendered feathered wings spread upward and folded forelimbs clearly delineated; the mane is rendered in fine engraved lines and the musculature of the neck and chest is depicted with notable artistic skill. The city ethnic legend ΣKHΨION appears in the field around the figure, partially distributed across the upper and lateral areas. The design is characteristic of the archaic to early classical style of Troas mint coinage. |
