Beschrijving keerzijde The central device depicts the ornate carved stone khachkar (cross-stone) from the medieval monastery of Haghpat, rendered in detailed relief showcasing the intricate interlaced Armenian stone-carving artistry. The legend ՔՐԻՍՏՈՆԵԱՅ ՀԱՅԱՍՏԱՆ (Christian Armenia) arcs along the upper field in Armenian script, while ՀԱՂՊԱՏ (Haghpat) appears in the left field. The commemorative date range 301-2001 and the inscription 1700 are inscribed centrally, referencing the 1700th anniversary of the Christianization of Armenia. The Latin legends HAGHPAT and CHRISTIAN ARMENIA appear in the lower field, providing a bilingual identification of the subject. The design commemorates the forthcoming 1700th jubilee of Armenia's adoption of Christianity as a state religion.

Aanvullende informatie

Haghpat Monastery, founded in the 10th century under the Bagratid kingdom, was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1996 — just two years before this coin was issued, almost certainly as a direct response to that designation. Armenia was then barely seven years into independence and actively building a national numismatic program around its pre-Soviet cultural heritage.

The monastery survived Mongol raids and multiple earthquakes across nine centuries. It still functions as a religious site in Lori Province.
