Reverse description Pegasus springing to the right in a dynamic rearing pose, with large outstretched wings prominently displayed and forelegs raised. The musculature of the winged horse is rendered in high relief with accomplished artistic skill. The ethnic legend ΑΛΑΒΑΝΔΕΩΝ arcs across the upper field above the figure. The letter alpha (Α) appears in the lower field beneath the horse, serving as a control mark or magistrate's initial. The overall composition is well-centered and characteristic of the civic coinage of Alabanda in Caria.
