Interesting fact

The Arcadian League (Arkadia) was a confederation of city-states in ancient Greece, and the Stater coin was issued by the league during the 4th century BC. The coin features an image of a lyre on one side and a Pegasus on the other, which symbolizes the league's connection to music and poetry, as well as its association with the mythical winged horse that was said to have been born in Arcadia.
