| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Greek coat of arms — a heraldic shield bearing a white cross on blue, encircled by a laurel wreath — is depicted in a small central medallion set against a richly textured field entirely covered with incuse geometric figures, diagrams, and mathematical notations evoking the theorems of Euclidean geometry. The central medallion is rendered with a dark oxidized background, creating strong contrast with the polished coat of arms. The circular legend surrounding the coat of arms within the medallion reads ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΔΗΜΟΚΡΑΤΙΑ above and 10 ΕΥΡΩ below, both in Greek characters. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued to honor Euclid of Alexandria, whose *Elements* — compiled around 300 BC — remained the foundational geometry textbook in European and Islamic scholarship for over two millennia. Greece has produced a number of mathematician-themed collector issues, but Euclid is a peculiar choice insofar as almost nothing is known about him as a person: no birth date, no verified portrait, no confirmed biographical detail beyond his association with Alexandria under Ptolemy I.
The .925 fineness places this among Greece's standard collector silver output of the period.
