Stater

正面描述	Pegasus, the winged horse sacred to Corinth, depicted in a dynamic bending posture facing left, with wings spread and elaborately rendered feathers. The creature stands upon a ground line, its musculature and scaled body rendered with fine archaic detail. The Corinthian koppa letter (Ϙ), serving as the city's mint mark, appears beneath the body in the lower field.

附加信息	Corinthian staters of this period were among the most widely circulated coins in the ancient Mediterranean — so ubiquitous in trade that they acquired the nickname "colts" (pōloi) after Pegasus, and were imitated by dozens of city-states across northwestern Greece, Sicily, and the Adriatic colonies. Their acceptance was essentially supranational; Corinth's commercial reach meant these pieces passed through hands that had never seen the city itself. Ravel 700 falls within a well-documented obverse die grouping, though die-link studies for this stretch of the series remain complicated by the sheer volume of surviving specimens and the number of active dies in simultaneous use.
