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 mythological creature called a "sphinx" on the other. The sphinx was a creature with the body of a lion and the head of a woman, and it was said to have guarded the city of Kroton. The coin's design was meant to symbolize the city's strength and protection.
