| Obverse description | Central field features a stylized depiction of the Golden Fleece — the legendary ram's pelt of Greek mythology — rendered as an ornate, flowing fleece adorned with spiral curl motifs and suspended from a bundle of oak branches with foliage at the top. The design is executed in high relief with fine decorative detail. The circular legend around the upper periphery reads in Georgian script and Latin characters 'GOLDEN FLEECE', while the lower portion of the field bears the inscription '1/10 OZ GOLD 999.9'. A dentilated border frames the entire design. |

| Additional information |
The Golden Fleece series was introduced by the National Bank of Georgia as part of a broader effort to establish a bullion coinage program following the country's post-Soviet monetary reconstruction. Georgia's claim to the Golden Fleece myth is geographically grounded — ancient Colchis, the destination of Jason and the Argonauts, corresponds to the western Georgian coast along the Black Sea, a detail ancient Greek and Roman sources consistently place there.
At 3.1 grams of .999 gold, this is a fractional issue with limited secondary market depth outside the Caucasus region.
