Obverse description Pegasus in full flight to the left, depicted with wings raised and spread, forelegs extended in a bounding posture. The winged horse is rendered in fine relief with carefully engraved feather detail on the wings and musculature on the body. The koppa symbol (Ϙ), the characteristic mint control mark of Corinth, appears below the figure in the lower field. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, consistent with Corinthian stater production of the period.

Reverse description Helmeted head of Athena facing right, wearing a Corinthian helmet pushed back to reveal the face, rendered in fine three-quarter relief with detailed cheekpieces and a plain bowl. The letter N appears below the helmet bowl as a die-cutter's control mark, while a bearded herm is depicted facing outward in the left field behind the goddess. The composition reflects the high artistic standard of Corinthian engravers during the mid-fourth to early third century BC.
