Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Tetradrachm coin from Syracuse (Sicily) is that it features the image of the Greek goddess Arethusa, who was revered as the patron deity of the city, on one side, and a quadriga (a chariot drawn by four horses) on the other. This design was unique to Syracuse and reflected the city's cultural and political ties to ancient Greece.
