| Reverse description | The reverse bears a large, finely detailed bearded portrait bust of the ancient Greek lyric poet Alcaeus in left-facing profile, rendered in a neoclassical sculptural style with voluminous curling hair and beard. The name 'ΑΛΚΑΙΟΣ' (Alcaeus) is inscribed vertically along the right inner border in Greek characters. The date '2019' appears to the left of the bust in the field, accompanied by a small mint mark above it. The design is framed by a continuous Greek meander (key) border, consistent with the obverse. |
