Reversbeschreibung The reverse presents a vivid color-applied photographic depiction of the Gndevank Monastery, a medieval Armenian ecclesiastical complex, shown in a naturalistic landscape with snow-capped mountains visible in the background. The monastery's stone church, featuring a conical rotunda surmounted by a cross, occupies the center of the composition, surrounded by ancillary structures and a grassy foreground. The scene is framed by an ornate arched border with decorative foliate motifs at the top, and a band of traditional Armenian ornamental interlace runs along the lower edge. Along the left border, the date '2012' and the Armenian word 'ԳՆԴԵՎԱՆՔ' are inscribed vertically, while 'GNDEVANK MONASTERY' appears vertically along the right border in Latin script. Armenian calligraphic script in the upper arch area further enhances the traditional artistic character of the design.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Gndevank Monastery, founded in the 10th century on the banks of the Arpa River in the Vayots Dzor region, was a functioning religious and scholarly center before being largely abandoned following the Seljuk incursions. The 2012 Armenian commemorative silver program drew heavily from ecclesiastical architecture as Armenia marked the 1700th anniversary of Christianity's adoption as the state religion — a sequence of events dating to 301 AD under King Tiridates III, making Armenia the first nation to adopt Christianity as an official state religion.

The .925 silver series from this period was struck by several contract mints on behalf of the Central Bank, with distribution aimed primarily at the collector market rather than circulation.
