Interesting fact
The obverse (front) side of the coin features a portrait of the Greek goddess Athena, while the reverse (back) side depicts a four-horse chariot (quadriga) driven by the god Apollo. This imagery reflects the cultural influence of ancient Greece on the city of Myrhina, which was located in the region of Aeolis in western Anatolia (modern-day Turkey).
