Beschrijving voorzijde Pegasus in full flight to the right, wings raised and spread, forelegs extended in a dynamic galloping pose. The winged horse is rendered with fine detail in the archaic Carian tradition, with musculature indicated on the body and neck. A border of pellets or dots frames the upper field. The overall style is characteristic of Hellenistic civic coinage from Caria.

Aanvullende informatie

Bargylia was a small coastal city in Caria whose coinage history is closely tied to its shifting political allegiances during the Hellenistic period. The city came under Rhodian influence following Rome's settlement of the eastern Mediterranean after Pydna in 168 BC, though it had earlier petitioned Rome for recognition of its autonomy. That petition is actually recorded — Bargylia sent envoys in 196 BC arguing for freedom from Rhodian control, making it one of the few minor Carian mints whose political circumstances survive in the literary record.

The hemidrachm series attributed to Bargylia is sparsely documented, and the wide date range assigned to HN Online 1571 reflects genuine uncertainty about when within the Hellenistic sequence these pieces were struck.
