| Reverse description | A finely detailed three-quarter perspective view of the Cathedral of Holy Etchmiadzin occupies the central field, depicting the ancient stone cathedral with its distinctive conical dome, flanking chapels, and arcaded entrance gateway rendered in high relief. Along the upper periphery, a bilingual legend in Armenian script reads 'ՔՐԻՍՏՈՆԵԱՅ ՀԱՅԱՍՏԱՆ' (Christian Armenia) and 'Ս. ԷՋՄԻԱԾԻՆ' (Holy Etchmiadzin), with 'H. ETCHMIADZIN' in Latin script to the right. In the lower exergue, the dates '301-2001' denote the 1700th anniversary of Armenian Christianity, with the numeral '1700' prominently displayed below, and 'CHRISTIAN ARMENIA' in Latin letters along the bottom arc. A fine beaded inner border frames the design. |
