Beschrijving voorzijde Forepart of Pegasus advancing to the right, depicted in an archaic artistic style with outstretched wings prominently displayed. The winged horse is rendered in high relief against a plain field, with fine detail visible in the feathering of the wings and the musculature of the equine foreparts. The design is characteristic of early fifth-century BC Macedonian coinage from the region of Therma.

Aanvullende informatie

Therma, situated at the head of the Thermaic Gulf in Macedonia, was a Greek colonial city that would later be refounded by Cassander in 316 BC and renamed Thessaloniki. Its independent coinage predates that absorption entirely, placing this tetrobol among the earliest issues from a mint whose city would eventually become one of the most important in the ancient world. The SNG Ashmolean reference number suggests a single known specimen or near-unique attestation in major collections — Therma's issues are genuinely scarce.
