Apart from the drachma, other Greek coins included the obol, which was a smaller denomination valued at one-sixth of a drachma, and the stater, which varied in value across regions but was typically worth two to four drachmas. The tetradrachm, worth four drachmas, was also widely used, especially in larger transactions. Additionally, various city-states minted their own coins, often featuring unique designs and values, such as the Athenian owl coins and Corinthian staters.
