<p>[QUOTE="Ryan McVay, post: 23700881, member: 117904"]Nice coin. The bee and the stag are both symbols representing Artimis. The Temple of Artemis- one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World- was situated in Ephesus, the bee was of great consequence as a symbol of the city. The priestesses in the Temple were even called melissae (honey bees). The stag, of course, is related to hunting and wild animals.
