Interesting fact
The Æ Shekel coin from Carthage was used as a form of currency during a time when Carthage was a major power in the Mediterranean region. Despite being made of bronze, which was a less valuable material than gold or silver, the Æ Shekel was widely accepted and used for trade and commerce throughout the region. This speaks to the strong economy and trade networks that existed in Carthage during this time period.
