Interesting fact
The Corinthian Stater was one of the first coins to feature a depiction of a human being. The obverse side of the coin features a portrait of a bearded man, believed to be the god Apollo, while the reverse side features a representation of a Pegasus, the mythical winged horse. This coin was a significant innovation in ancient coinage, as it introduced the concept of a standardized currency that could be used across different city-states in ancient Greece.
