| Obverse description | Central field features an stylised olive branch rendered in flowing, curvilinear relief, flanking the Olympic rings emblem at centre. Above the rings, the Greek inscription ΑΘΗΝΑ 2004 appears in the field. The denomination 10 ΕΥΡΩ is inscribed along the lower arc in bold Greek lettering. A ring of twelve five-pointed stars encircles the inner design, referencing the European Union, set against a polished proof field. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dramatic high-relief composition depicting two athletic figures representing the sport of swimming: a swimmer in dynamic motion, body arched with one arm raised, kneeling on a starting block, accompanied by a second figure rendered in finer stippled relief standing to the right. The scene is executed in a contrasting sculptural style, with the principal figure in bold three-dimensional relief against a deeply mirrored proof field. The engraver's monogram ΠΓ (Panagiotis Gravvalos) appears in the lower left of the field. |
