Interesting fact

The Drachm coin from Emporion (Hispania) was used as a form of currency in the ancient Greek city of Emporion, which is now modern-day Spain. The coin features the image of a dolphin on one side and the goddess Aphrodite on the other, highlighting the city's strong maritime trade and cultural connections to the Greek world.
