Reverse description Two nude ancient Greek wrestlers are depicted in dynamic combat at the center of the field, rendered in a style inspired by classical Attic vase painting. A decorative frieze of stylized palmette ornaments borders both the upper and lower edges of the design. The five interlocked Olympic rings appear in the upper right field, accompanied by the commemorative dates 1896-1996 below them, marking the centennial of the modern Olympic Games.
