Interesting fact
The Tetradrachm coin from Ainos (Thrace) was used as a form of currency in ancient Greece and its design was inspired by the Greek goddess Athena. The obverse side of the coin features the image of Athena wearing a helmet and carrying a spear, while the reverse side depicts a quadriga (a chariot pulled by four horses) and a driver. The coin's design was meant to symbolize the power and strength of the city-state of Ainos, which was an important center of trade and commerce in the ancient world.
