Interesting fact

The Kroton Stater was used as a form of currency in the ancient Greek city of Kroton, which is now known as Crotone, in southern Italy. The coin features an image of a lion's head on one side and a wheel on the other, which symbolizes the city's connection to the sea and its maritime trade. The coin was minted during the 3rd century BC, a time when Kroton was an important center of trade and commerce in the Mediterranean.
