| Reverse description | The central field features a composite design commemorating the catastrophic Spitak earthquake of December 7, 1988: a stylized outline map of Armenia forms the background, overlaid with a partially collapsed traditional Armenian church or chapel with a conical dome, rendered in fine line engraving against a mirror-field. Rubble and debris are depicted at the base of the structure, evoking the destruction wrought by the disaster. The denomination '10 ՏԱՐԻ' (10 years) appears to the lower left in Armenian script, and a dotted border ring frames the inner field. The legend 'ՀԱՅԱՍՏԱՆ 7.12.88' (Armenia, 7.12.88) arcs along the upper periphery in Armenian script. |
