Coins often feature the head of a king or ruler to symbolize authority, legitimacy, and the state’s power.

It also served to unify the realm by providing a recognizable emblem for commerce and trade. Additionally, the portrayal of a ruler on currency helped to legitimize their rule and instill a sense of loyalty among the populace.
