Interesting fact

The Andros coin Æ18 (300 BC - 250 BC) is notable for its unique design, featuring a stylized head of the Greek goddess Athena on one side and a shield and spear on the other. This design was used consistently throughout the coinage of Andros during this time period, indicating a strong cultural and religious connection to Athena, the patron deity of the city-state.
