| 正面描述 | Pegasos depicted in full flight to the left, rendered in high relief with prominent outstretched wings and forelegs extended in a characteristic galloping pose. The winged horse occupies the majority of the flan, with the head turned slightly and the body rendered in a naturalistic yet archaic style typical of Corinthian-type coinage. The reverse of the horse's body and hindquarters are well articulated, with the tail curving downward. The field is plain and unlettered, with the design struck on an irregular, broad flan characteristic of Ambracian production. |

| 背面描述 | Helmeted head of Athena facing right, wearing a Corinthian helmet with a prominent neck guard and cheek pieces, rendered in fine archaic style with carefully detailed facial features. Above the visor of the helmet, a naked dancing satyr is depicted in lively, animated pose, serving as a distinctive control mark identifying the Ambracian mint. The letter A (Alpha) appears in the field as the initial of Ambracia, the issuing city. The reverse design is executed in incuse with the head in high relief, consistent with the artistic conventions of Epeirote Corinthian-type staters of the early fourth century BC. |

Ambracia was a Corinthian colony founded around 625 BC, and its coinage follows the Corinthian weight standard — a direct inheritance from the mother city. The colony maintained enough political independence to strike its own issues rather than simply circulating Corinthian originals, which accounts for the distinct local types catalogued under this series.
The specific die pairing referenced in Pegasi#36 / Colts#62 places this piece within a well-documented but relatively small group of staters assigned to the decades bracketing 400 BC, a period when Ambracia was drawn into the conflicts between Sparta and the Ambracian Gulf city-states.
