Interesting fact
The Agla Stater coin from Thebes (Boeotia) features a unique design on its obverse side, depicting a boar's head with a crescent moon above it. This design was meant to symbolize the city's patron deity, Apollo, who was often associated with boars and the moon. The use of a boar's head on the coinage of Thebes was a common motif during this time period, and it signified the city's connection to the god Apollo and the surrounding wildlife.
