| Obverse description | Pegasos, the winged horse of Corinthian mythology, depicted in left-facing prancing pose with wings spread and elaborately rendered feathering. The figure is shown in high relief with finely detailed musculature and flowing mane. Below the horse, the Corinthian koppa symbol (Ϙ) appears as a mint control mark in the lower field. The composition follows the canonical Corinthian stater type, with Pegasos occupying the full flan in a dynamic, rearing stance. |

| Reverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing left, wearing a Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head, rendered in fine archaic-transitional style with delicate facial features and wavy locks of hair visible beneath the helmet rim. The cheek-guards of the helmet are raised. A small forepart of Pegasos appears as a control symbol in the lower right field before the goddess. The die engraving demonstrates the accomplished craftsmanship characteristic of Corinthian mint production in the early fourth century BC. |
