Awake Goy Oldest coins were Greek.
Just like the oldest language was also Greek.
Just like the oldest Bible scripts came from the Greeks.
In ancient Greece, bees were used on some of the earliest coins made in Europe.
A silver Greek obol coin minted in Macedon between 412 BCE and 350 BCE, now housed in the British Museum, shows a bee on one side of the coin.
Bees also feature on coins minted elsewhere in the ancient Greek world, such as a bronze coin minted in Ephesus dated between 202 BCE and 133 BCE.
The use of bees on ancient coins extended for many centuries including widely circulated bronze coins, and new varieties continue to be discovered.
