Interesting fact

The 1 Triunx coin from Hatria (Picenum) is interesting because it features a unique blend of Greek and Roman influences in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a helmeted head of Athena, a common motif in Greek coinage, while the reverse side shows a triangular shield with three arrows, which is a distinctly Roman symbol. This blending of cultural influences reflects the complex history of the region and the coin's place in the broader context of ancient Mediterranean trade and commerce.
