| Obverse description | Pegasus in full flight to the left, rendered in high relief with finely detailed feathered wings spread upward; the winged horse is depicted with all four legs extended in a vigorous gallop. Below the body of Pegasus appears the archaic Greek letter koppa (Ϙ), serving as the civic control mark of Corinth. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, characteristic of Corinthian silver coinage of the fourth century BC. |

| Reverse description | Helmeted head of Athena facing left in fine classical style, wearing a Corinthian helmet pushed back on her head to reveal her face; the helmet bowl is rendered in crisp detail with a prominent cheekpiece and neck guard. Flowing locks of hair emerge beneath the helmet. Behind the head appears the letter epsilon (E) as a control symbol, accompanied by a dove also positioned behind the head, both serving as secondary control marks identifying this emission within the Corinthian series. The overall style reflects the accomplished die-cutting of the mid-fourth century BC Corinthian mint. |
