Interesting fact
The Corinthian Stater was used as a standard unit of currency in ancient Greece, and its design was adopted by many other city-states. It features a Pegasus, a mythical winged horse, on one side and a helmeted head of Athena on the other. The Pegasus symbolized the city's connection to the goddess Athena, who was believed to have founded Corinth. The coin's design remained relatively unchanged for over a century, indicating the enduring popularity of its iconic imagery.
