Apparently a unique and unpublished denomination, cf. May, Ainos, Group XXLV, 370 (tetradrachm).Interesting fact
The Tetrobol coin from Ainos (Thrace) was used as a form of currency in ancient Greece and its design has been well preserved, offering a glimpse into the artistry and craftsmanship of that era.
