| 背面描述 | Bust of Athena facing left, wearing a Corinthian helmet pushed back on the head, with locks of hair escaping beneath the cheekpieces and cascading onto the neck. The facial features are rendered with refined Corinthian artistry, displaying a serene, idealized profile. To the right of Athena's head, in the field, appears the forepart of a horse prancing to the right, serving as a secondary control symbol. The reverse composition is characteristic of the so-called 'Pegasus staters' of Corinth and its colonial issues. |

Corinthian staters dominated western Greek trade for nearly two centuries, circulating so widely across Sicily, southern Italy, and the Adriatic colonies that local mints from Syracuse to Apollonia produced direct imitations — the so-called "Corinthianizing" issues. This reach was not accidental: Corinth's position on the diadrome, the overland portage between the Saronic and Corinthian gulfs, made her the fulcrum of east-west Mediterranean commerce.
Ravel's die study, still the foundational reference for the series, identified over 1,000 obverse dies for the archaic and classical periods combined — a production scale that speaks to the coin's role as an international trading currency rather than purely civic money. The BCD collection specimen cross-referenced here was among the most closely analyzed in that corpus.
