Interesting fact
The Timi Stater coin from Thebes (Boeotia) is interesting because it features a unique combination of symbols on its obverse side, including a shield with a gorgon's head, a snake, and a flower. This combination of symbols may have been used to convey a message or represent a particular deity, and it sets the coin apart from other coins of the time.
