Interesting fact
The Drachm coin from Neapolis (Macedon) was used as a form of currency during the reign of King Alexander the Great, who conquered a vast portion of the known world at the time. This coin was likely used to pay for goods and services during that era, and its design and weight were standardized across the Macedonian Empire.
