Interesting fact

The Drachm coin from the Thessalian League (Thessaly) was used as a form of currency during the 1st century BC, and its design featured the image of a mythical creature called the Chimera. The Chimera was a creature from Greek mythology that had the body of a lion, the head of a goat, and the tail of a serpent. It was said to be a powerful and fierce creature, and its image was often used on coins and other artifacts to symbolize strength and power.
