Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Greek and Italian influences in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts the Greek goddess Athena, while the reverse side features a representation of the Italian city of Tarentum, where the coin was minted. This blending of cultures reflects the rich history of the region, which was colonized by Greek settlers in the 8th century BC and later became a major city in Magna Graecia, a region of Greek colonies in southern Italy.
