Interesting fact
The Triobol coin was used as a form of currency in ancient Greece, specifically in the city of Maroneia (Thrace) during the 4th century BC. The coin's name "Triobol" comes from the Greek word "triobolos," which means "three-piece." This name refers to the fact that the coin was made up of three separate pieces: two outer pieces and one inner piece. The outer pieces were made of silver, while the inner piece was made of a copper-like metal. This unique design made the Triobol coin easily distinguishable from other coins in circulation at the time.
