This big-eyed owl is a symbol of the goddess Athena. The coin is a silver Tetradrachm from Athens, dating from 454–404 BCE. ?? Athena is the Greek goddess of wisdom and warfare. Her fantastic birth describes her springing fully grown and clothed in armor from her father Zeus's head. On currency, she is often shown wearing a full helmet or headdress, as if she is preparing for war, and is often accompanied by the image of an owl. Athena lent her patronage to the ancient cities of Athens. ?
