Interesting fact
The obverse (front) side of the coin features the image of a phoenix, which was a mythical bird that was said to be born from its own ashes, symbolizing renewal and rebirth. This imagery was likely chosen to represent the city of Thebes' resilience and ability to rise from the ashes, as it had recently experienced significant political and military turmoil.
