Pegasus was gifted to Perseus after he defeated Medusa and featured in other stories from Greek mythology.

History
British Virgin Islands Pegasus silver coins were introduced in 2016 by the Pobjoy Mint. What originally included a 1 oz silver coin has since grown to feature 2 oz and 5 oz options in the series as well. The coins are reverse frosted in this series, indicating mirrored elements and frosted background fields. The BVI historically used horses on its currency, making the revival of horse designs for this bullion series an important historical connection across the ages. Today, the official circulating currency in the BVI is the US dollar.
