The date 1994 appears beneath the denomination. A stylised wreath of olive branches, rendered in bold outline, frames the central design on both sides, with the branches crossing and tied at the base. |

| Additional information |
Armenia's first post-Soviet coinage series was introduced in 1994, three years after independence, as the dram replaced the Soviet ruble following its collapse. The aluminium alloy chosen for this denomination was a practical concession — the new republic's economy was in crisis, partly due to the ongoing conflict with Azerbaijan over Nagorno-Karabakh, which had devastated trade and infrastructure since 1988.
