Interesting fact
The Lokroi Opuntii Stater is one of the earliest known coins to feature a portrait of a human, with the obverse depicting a bearded man wearing a wreath, possibly representing the legendary founder of Lokris, Opus. This coin's design and the use of a human portrait were significant innovations in early coinage and paved the way for the development of more complex and detailed designs in future coins.
