Interesting fact
The Hemiobol coin was used as a form of currency in ancient Greece, specifically in the city-state of Thebes, during the 5th century BC. The coin features an image of a shield on one side and a helmet on the other, which symbolized the military power and strength of Thebes during that time. Despite its small size and relatively low value, the Hemiobol was widely used in trade and commerce, and it remains a valuable piece of history for numismatists and collectors today.
