Interesting fact
The Dichalkon coin from Meliboia (Thessaly) is interesting because it features a unique blend of two different animal symbols on its obverse side - a horse and a bull. This combination represents the strength and power of both animals and signifies the importance of agriculture and livestock in the region.
