Interesting fact

The Stater coin of Perikles (Antiphellos) from Dynasts of Lycia (Achaemenid Satrapies) is notable for its unique design, which features a lion's head on one side and an inscription in ancient Greek on the other. The inscription reads "ΠΕΡΙΚΛΗΣ ΑΝΤΙΦΕΛΛΟΣ ΛΥΚΙΩΝ ΑΧΑΙΜΕΝΙΔΩΝ ΣΑΤΡΑΠΗΣ," which translates to "Perikles, son of Antiphellos, satrap of the Lycians, of the Achaemenid Empire." This coin is a rare example of a coin that was issued by a satrap (a governor or viceroy) of the Achaemenid Empire, and it provides valuable insight into the administration and governance of the empire during that time period.
