Interesting fact
The Pausanias Stater from Abdera (Thrace) is notable for its unique design, which features a portrait of the ruler Pausanias on one side and a depiction of the mythical creature, the Griffin, on the other. The Griffin was a symbol of protection and strength in ancient Greek mythology, and its inclusion on the coin may have been intended to convey the power and authority of Pausanias.
