Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features the image of a Persian king, possibly Artaxerxes III, on one side, and a Greek goddess, possibly Athena, on the other. This blending of Persian and Greek imagery reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred during the Achaemenid Empire's rule over the Satrapy of Cilicia.
