Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Apollonia Pontika Tetradrachm is that it features a unique blend of Greek and Thracian elements in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a portrait of the Greek goddess Athena, while the reverse side features a Thracian horseman, highlighting the cultural exchange and fusion that occurred in the region during that time period.
