| Reverse description | A draped bust of the ancient Greek philosopher and atomist Democritus is depicted in high relief to the left, shown bearded and facing three-quarters right, rendered in a classical sculptural style. To the right, a stylized atomic model diagram occupies a polished cameo field, symbolizing Democritus's foundational atomic theory. The surrounding field features elaborate scientific and cosmological motifs — concentric arcs, wave forms, and geometric patterns — in high relief. The legend ΔΗΜΟΚΡΙΤΟΣ and his dates of life 460-370 Π.Χ. appear along the lower portion of the field, with the year of issue 2016 inscribed nearby. |
