The beauties of Greek mythology

The obverse of the coin is divided into four, each containing elements of the coins in the Mythical Creatures series: the Labyrinth of the Minotaur, Siren Island, the Harpy Nest, and the Kraken. These mythical creatures are often encountered in Greek mythology.

There was no shortage of beautiful creatures in Greek mythology. In addition to goddesses, nymphs, and muses, sirens could also boast of their beauty. One legend says that sirens were the daughters of one of the three Greek muses and the river god Achelous. They were mythological creatures, part female, part bird. It is believed that sirens inherited exactly what they were from their parents. From their mother, the beautiful muse, the extraordinary voices that eventually became the uniqueness and destiny of the sirens. And from their father, the river god, they inherited their wild nature, so they were only found on their island.
