| Beschrijving voorzijde | The field is dominated by the three-line Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΟΝ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ (Kingdom of Greece) arranged across the upper and central portions of the coin, with the date 1912 inscribed in the exergue below. A detailed royal crown is positioned to the right of the central circular hole, its elaborate arched form rendered in fine relief with pearl-beaded ornaments and a cross surmount. The design is framed by a continuous beaded border running along the coin's outer rim. The composition is characteristically spare and heraldic, with the legend and crown flanking the central aperture in a balanced arrangement. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Greece's 1912 pattern coinage in nickel was produced experimentally as the government weighed a shift in small-denomination alloys ahead of anticipated monetary reforms. The timing was not incidental — 1912 was the first year of the First Balkan War, during which Greece was actively expanding its territory and its monetary infrastructure was under pressure to modernize in step with a rapidly changing state.
KM#E26 never entered circulation. Pattern survivorship from this period is poorly documented, and confirmed examples rarely surface through Greek or international auction houses.
