Obverse description Forepart of Pegasus in flight to left, rendered in bold archaic relief with characteristic early Corinthian style. The winged horse displays prominent outstretched forelegs and elaborately striated wing feathers fanning upward across the field. The head is turned slightly, showing a well-defined mane rendered with incised parallel lines. The Corinthian magistrate's symbol, the archaic koppa (Ϙ), appears below the forepart, serving as the city's ethnic abbreviation and identifying mark.
