| Aversbeschreibung | Pegasus in full flight to the left, rendered with outstretched, layered wings and animated musculature characteristic of Corinthian die-cutting of the fourth century BC. The winged horse is depicted with a pointed wing tip and curled tail, its forelegs extended in a dynamic galloping pose. Below the body of Pegasus, in the lower field, appears the archaic koppa (Ϙ), the civic control symbol of Corinth, serving as a mint identifier. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, with the design filling the field in high relief. The overall style is vigorous and naturalistic, consistent with the finest Corinthian silver coinage of the period. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Corinthian staters circulated more widely than almost any other Greek silver coinage of the fourth century, carried by mercenaries throughout the Mediterranean and into the Persian sphere. Their ubiquity earned them the nickname "colts" — a reference to the type rather than affectionate slang — and Corinthian-standard imitations were produced across northwestern Greece, Sicily, and the Levant, often indistinguishable from metropolitan issues without careful die study.
Ravel's 1928 corpus remains the foundational reference, though BCD's later work refined the chronology considerably. This piece falls within the transitional phase when Corinth's commercial dominance was already being pressured by Macedonian expansion under Philip II.
