Interesting fact

The Side Stater coin was minted during the reign of King Apollophanes, who ruled Side from 400 BC to 380 BC. The coin features an image of the king on one side and the Greek god Apollo on the other, which reflects the city's name and the king's name. This coin was used as a form of currency in the ancient Greek world and is now considered a valuable collector's item.
