| Reverse description | A dynamic, contemporary discus thrower rendered in a modern athletic style occupies the central field, with the ghosted silhouette of a stylized ancient Greek discus thrower superimposed behind, set within a circular decorative border. The design juxtaposes the classical origins of the sport with its modern Olympic form, commemorating the continuity of the Games from antiquity to the present. The denomination 1 CROWN appears at the lower reverse, while the legend XXVI OLYMPIC GAMES ATLANTA and the dual dates 1896 1996 arc around the upper and lateral periphery. |
