| 裏面の説明 | The central design depicts a mother figure cradling a young child in the foreground, conveying the plight of displaced persons, with a encampment of tents rendered in lower relief in the background field. The denomination £1 appears to the right of the figural group, while the bilingual inscription ΘΕΡΟΣ and SUMMER 1974 is placed in the lower field, commemorating the displacement of Cypriot refugees following the events of summer 1974. The composition is naturalistic and emotionally expressive, characteristic of commemorative medallic art of the period. |

Issued two years after the Turkish military intervention of July–August 1974, which displaced an estimated 160,000–200,000 Greek Cypriots from the north of the island, this coin was struck specifically to draw international attention to the ongoing refugee crisis. The funds and awareness generated by commemorative issues of this type were part of a broader Cypriot government effort to keep the displacement politically visible at a time when resettlement negotiations had stalled entirely.
