Interesting fact
The Tetrobol coin from Mende (Macedon) is interesting because it features a unique combination of symbols on its obverse side, including a helmeted head of Athena, a griffin, and a rose. This combination of symbols suggests that the coin may have been used as a form of currency in the ancient Greek city-state of Mende, and that it may have been associated with the worship of Athena, the goddess of wisdom and war.
