Comment
Thomson 729dInteresting fact
The Corinthian Stater was one of the first coins to feature a depiction of a mythological creature, specifically the Pegasus, on its obverse (front side). The Pegasus was a symbol of the city of Corinth and was often associated with the goddess Athena, who was revered as the patron deity of the city. The inclusion of the Pegasus on the coinage of Corinth helped to establish the city's reputation as a center of trade and commerce, as well as its cultural and artistic achievements.
