Obverse description Pegasos in full flight to the right, rendered in high relief with outstretched wings fully spread above the body; the forelegs are raised and the hindlegs extended in a dynamic galloping pose. The musculature and feathering are finely engraved in the archaic Greek style, conveying both power and elegance. A small curl or knop is visible at the top of the head. The field is plain and slightly irregular, consistent with the flan preparation typical of Ambrakian coinage of this period.
