Interesting fact

The Alyzia Stater was minted during a time of great political and cultural change in ancient Greece. The coin features an image of a mythical creature called a gorgon on one side and an inscription of the name of the city, Alyzia, on the other. The gorgon was a symbol of protection and power, and its inclusion on the coin may have been meant to convey the strength and prosperity of the city.
