| Beschrijving keerzijde | A winged horse (Pegasus) depicted rearing to the right in a dynamic, prancing posture, with both forelegs raised and the wings swept boldly upward and to the left. The creature's mane is rendered with a row of closely cropped, beaded locks along the crest of the neck, and the musculature of the body is powerfully articulated in high relief. The tail sweeps dramatically upward and backward, contributing to the sense of vigorous motion. The field is plain and slightly granular in texture, typical of hammered gold issues of this period. No legend is present, consistent with the standard typology of Lampsakene gold staters. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Lampsakos sat at the mouth of the Hellespont — a position that made it one of the most strategically valuable minting cities in the Greek world. Persian satraps depended on the route; so did Athens. The city's gold staters, struck over roughly five decades bracketed by the King's Peace of 387 BC and Alexander's crossing into Asia in 334 BC, likely served in part to pay tribute obligations and mercenary forces operating across that corridor.
The Baldwin and Traité references place this among the better-documented Lampsacene types, though attribution of specific dies to narrow date ranges within this series remains contested.
