Interesting fact
The Haliartos Stater was used as a form of currency in ancient Greece during the 4th century BC. It features an image of a mythical creature called a Griffin, which was a symbol of protection and strength in Greek mythology. The coin's design was meant to convey the wealth and power of the city of Haliartos, which was an important center of trade and commerce in the region. Despite being over 2,000 years old, many of these coins have survived to the present day and are highly prized by collectors and historians.
