Interesting fact

The Tetradrachm (Apollokopf Type) coin from the Uncertain Dacian tribes (Dacians) is interesting because it features an image of Apollo on one side and a mythical creature on the other, which is believed to be a representation of the Dacian god, Deceneus. This coin was used as a means of exchange and trade among the Dacian tribes and other neighboring civilizations, showcasing the importance of commerce and trade in the region during that time period.
