| Reversbeschreibung | Pegasos with a distinctively curved, swept-back wing shown in full flight, advancing to the left; the winged horse is depicted with careful anatomical detail characteristic of Achaean coinage of this period. Beneath the figure, in the lower field, appears the koppa (Ϙ), the archaic Greek letter serving as the city's mint mark for Kroton. |

Kroton dominated Magna Graecia through much of this period — its athletic prestige was unmatched in the Greek world, producing more Olympic victors per capita than virtually any other city. The colony's wealth derived from its position astride Calabrian trade routes, and its silver coinage circulated well beyond the toe of Italy. The incuse technique used by Kroton and its neighbors was a deliberate regional convention, almost certainly a monetary agreement among the Achaean colonies of southern Italy rather than independent invention.
The Lockett 622 reference places this piece within a well-documented private collection dispersed at Glendining's in 1955.
