Interesting fact
The Æ11 coin from Hephaistia (Thracian Islands) features a unique design on its reverse side, depicting a seated figure of the goddess Aphrodite, which is not commonly found on coins of that era. This suggests that the coin may have been minted specifically for a special occasion or event, or that it was intended to commemorate the goddess in some way.
