Interesting fact
The Odrysae (Thrace) coin is notable for its unique design, which features a stylized head of Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, fertility, and theater, on one side, and a grapevine on the other. This design is significant because it highlights the cultural exchange and influence of Greek art and mythology on the ancient Thracian civilization.
