Interesting fact
The Triunx coin from Larinum (Frentani) was used as a form of currency in ancient Rome, specifically during the Roman Republic. It was equivalent to three Roman dollars and was widely used for trade and commerce. The coin's design featured the image of a triple-faced goddess, representing the three phases of the moon, which was a symbol of fertility and prosperity in ancient Roman culture.
