| Beschrijving voorzijde | Pegasos depicted in full flight to the right, rendered with naturalistic musculature and finely detailed outstretched wings. The winged horse is shown in the canonical Corinthian style, with the near foreleg raised and the tail sweeping downward. The archaic letter koppa (Ϙ) appears below the body of Pegasos as a civic control mark, while the letter epsilon (Ε) is placed in the left field behind the figure. The overall composition fills the flan with confident, high-relief engraving characteristic of the Corinthian mint's mature output. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Corinthian staters were among the most widely circulated coins of the ancient Greek world, accepted across trade networks stretching from Sicily to the Black Sea. Their consistent weight standard made them a preferred medium for mercenary pay throughout the fourth century — Xenophon records Corinthian-standard silver being used to settle troops during the campaigns he documented in the Anabasis.
The Pegasi series designation reflects the longstanding numismatic tradition of cataloguing these coins by their Pegasus types, a system refined most comprehensively by Ravel. Type 173 within that sequence helps narrow the emission period and probable magistrate control marks, though attribution of individual Corinthian staters to specific workshops remains an active area of scholarly debate.
