| Obverse lettering | 2012 1 LATS 100 GADU OLIMPISKAJĀS SPĒLĒS |
| Reverse description | Three ancient Greek runners are depicted in vigorous stride across the central field, rendered in a bold, high-contrast black silhouette style inspired by classical Attic vase painting. The athletes are shown in profile, wearing minimal garments consistent with ancient Olympic competition, their musculature and movement conveying the dynamism of the footrace. The textured matte field provides a stark contrast to the darkened figures, enhancing the archaic aesthetic. The curved legend '776. GADS PRIEKŠ KRISTUS' is inscribed along the lower rim, referencing the year 776 BC, the traditionally accepted date of the first Olympic Games. |
