Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of the Greek god Apollo on one side and a depiction of the mythical creature, the Griffin, on the other. The Griffin was a symbol of protection and strength in ancient Greek mythology, and its inclusion on the coin may have been intended to convey the power and authority of the city of Apollonis.
