| Reversbeschreibung | Head of Athena facing right, depicted in profile within a recessed incuse square of pronounced depth, a hallmark of early Corinthian-type staters. The goddess wears a Corinthian helmet pushed back on her head, with a prominent crest and cheek-guards, the visor raised to reveal her facial features rendered in fine early Classical style. Delicate hair curls escape beneath the helmet at the nape of the neck, and a pearl necklace is visible at the throat. The incuse square features slightly concave sides, framing the bust with a bold, shadowed border typical of fifth-century BC Akarnanian silver coinage. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Leukas, the Corinthian colony occupying the strategically critical isthmus connecting Akarnania to its offshore island, began striking its own Pegasos staters in deliberate imitation of Corinthian coinage — a monetary policy designed to facilitate trade within the Corinthian commercial network while asserting a degree of civic autonomy. The lambda (Λ) identifying the mint distinguishes Leukadian issues from the flood of Corinthian and other colonial staters circulating the western Greek world during this period.
HGC 4, 811 covers a relatively tight die grouping for this emission. Pegasi #12 narrows the attribution further within that sequence.
