One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Greek and Thracian elements in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a stylized head of Dionysus, the Greek god of wine and fertility, while the reverse side features a Thracian horseman, highlighting the cultural exchange and fusion that occurred in the region during that time period.
