| Obverse description | Pegasos in full flight to the right, rendered in vigorous relief with wings fully spread and outstretched, the body of the horse shown with musculature characteristic of the Corinthian artistic tradition. The curled, serpentine neck and raised forelegs convey dynamic forward motion. The letter A (koppa or alpha depending on interpretation) appears beneath the creature. The flan is broad and slightly irregular, typical of early fifth-century Ambrakian coinage. |
