| 正面描述 | A large royal crown with arched bands, pearled borders, and a cross finial occupies the central field, rendered in fine relief after the design of engraver Alfred Borrel. The circular Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΟΝ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ (Kingdom of Greece) runs along the upper periphery, flanked by the beaded border. Below the crown, the engraver's signature Α. ΒΟΡΡΕΛ appears in small lettering, with the mint mark A (Paris) directly beneath it. The four-digit date 1895 is prominently displayed in the lower exergual area, with small decorative flourishes to either side. |

Greece switched from pure copper to copper-nickel for its small coinage in the 1890s partly under pressure from the Latin Monetary Union, of which it was a founding member, and partly to reduce the cost of producing fractional denominations that had been plagued by hoarding and export for their metal content. The two-year window of this issue reflects a short production run before the country's fiscal collapse — Greece declared bankruptcy in 1893 and suspended debt payments, severely curtailing government spending including mint operations.
