Interesting fact
The Corinthian Stater was widely used in ancient Greece and was considered a standard unit of exchange. It was used to pay soldiers, settle debts, and facilitate trade.

The coin's use spread beyond Corinth, and it became a widely recognized and trusted form of currency throughout the ancient Greek world.
