Obverse description Pegasus in full flight to the left, rendered in fine archaic style with outspread wings and foreshortened body; the mythological winged horse is depicted with musculature carefully detailed on the flan. Below the creature, the Corinthian civic control mark koppa (Ϙ) is placed in the lower field. The composition fills the rounded flan with characteristic Corinthian artistry, the figure conveying both power and elegant movement.

Reverse description Helmeted head of Athena facing left, wearing a Corinthian helmet pushed back on the crown, rendered in fine relief with delicate facial features typical of fourth-century Corinthian die-cutting. The letters Δ and I flank the neck on either side as control marks. Behind the goddess, a herm surmounted by a kerykeion (caduceus) and cornucopia faces toward the viewer, serving as an additional magistrate's or workshop symbol. The die work reflects the accomplished engraving tradition of Corinthian mint workers of this period.
