Interesting fact

The Drachm coin from Apollonia Pontika (Thrace) was used as a form of currency in ancient Greece and its design was inspired by the Greek goddess Athena. The obverse side of the coin features an image of Athena's head, while the reverse side features an owl, which was a symbol of wisdom and associated with Athena. The use of Athena's image on the coin was a way to show the city's connection to Greek culture and its deities.
