Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin 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 suggests that the city of Soloi in Cilicia (modern-day Turkey) was culturally influenced by the Greeks and valued the ideals of wisdom and victory.
