Reverse description The reverse depicts a colorized reproduction of Fragment A of the Antikythera Mechanism, the ancient Greek analog computing device discovered in a shipwreck off the island of Antikythera, rendered with remarkable detail including its corroded bronze surface and visible gear teeth. The fragment is shown in polychrome color treatment against the silver field, highlighting the green and brown patination of the original artifact. The upper legend ΑΡΧΑΙΑ ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΤΕΧΝΟΛΟΓΙΑ (Ancient Greek Technology) arcs along the periphery, with the date 2022 at the left and the legend Ο ΜΗΧΑΝΙΣΜΟΣ ΤΩΝ ΑΝΤΙΚΥΘΗΡΩΝ (The Antikythera Mechanism) arcing along the lower portion. A small engraver's signature appears in the lower central field.
