Interesting fact
The Triobol coin was used as a form of currency in the ancient Greek city of Kroton, which is now known as Crotone, in southern Italy. The coin features the image of a mythical creature called a "Triton," which is a half-human, half-fish creature that was believed to inhabit the sea. The Triton is depicted on the coin holding a trident, which was a symbol of power and authority in ancient Greek mythology. The coin's design was meant to signify the city's connection to the sea and its importance as a trading hub.
