| Reverse description | A full-length figure of an ancient Spartan warrior stands in a commanding stance at center, clad in classical Greek hoplite armor comprising a crested Corinthian helmet, a flowing cape, and greaves. The warrior holds a large round hoplon shield decorated with relief ornament in his left hand, while his right hand grasps a tall spear planted vertically at his side. The curved legend 'WARRIORS OF THE WORLD' arcs along the upper border, and the inscription 'SPARTAN' is prominently displayed in the lower field. The proof-like mirrored field contrasts with the finely detailed frosted relief of the warrior figure. |
