Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that depicts the mythical creature, the Minotaur, which is a half-man, half-bull creature from ancient Greek mythology. The Minotaur is shown standing on a rocky outcrop, surrounded by a maze, which is a nod to the creature's association with the Labyrinth, a complex maze designed by the ancient Greeks to hold the Minotaur captive. The coin's design is particularly interesting because it combines a historical figure from ancient Greece with a modern interpretation, creating a unique and visually striking image.
