Interesting fact
The Æ11 coin from Alexandreia (Troad) was minted during the reign of King Lysimachus, who was one of the generals of Alexander the Great. The coin features an image of a horned helmeted head of Zeus on one side and a youthful male figure on the other. This coin was used as a means of payment and exchange during that time and was also a symbol of the kingdom's wealth and power.
