Beschrijving keerzijde Forepart of Pegasos advancing to the right, shown in bold relief with the winged horse's chest, forelegs, and head prominently rendered. The large, sweeping wing is depicted in deeply striated, overlapping feathers that fill the upper field with decorative energy. The forelegs are extended in a prancing posture, with the hooves clearly articulated at lower right. A small circular device appears below the chest, likely a mint control mark. The composition is dynamic and well-centred, consistent with the established iconographic conventions of Lampsakene gold staters.

Aanvullende informatie

Lampsakos held a privileged position on the Hellespont that made it indispensable to anyone controlling grain traffic between the Black Sea and the Aegean — first the Persians, then briefly the Athenians, then the Persians again after the King's Peace of 387 BC reset the political map of western Asia Minor. This stater belongs to precisely that Persian-administered phase, when the city retained enough autonomy to strike its own gold coinage while nominally answering to the satrapy at Daskyleion.

The series ended with Alexander's crossing into Asia in 334 BC.
