Interesting fact

The Tetradrachm coin from Tenedos (Troad) features a unique design on its reverse side, depicting a mythological scene of a nereid (sea nymph) riding a hippocampus (a mythical creature with the upper body of a horse and the lower body of a fish). This design was used to symbolize the island's maritime culture and its connection to the sea.
