Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Stater (340 BC) from Soloi (Cilicia) made of Silver weighing 8.37 g is that it features an image of a seated Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom, on one side, and a winged Nike (Victory) on the other. This coin was issued during the reign of King Evagoras I, who ruled Soloi from 392 to 374 BC. The coin's design reflects the city's cultural and political ties to ancient Greece, and it is considered a rare and valuable artifact among collectors of ancient coins.
