| Reverse description | A right-facing bust of Georgios Karaiskakis, the celebrated Greek military commander and hero of the War of Independence, occupies the majority of the field. He is depicted wearing a traditional foustanella cap and period costume, with his hair gathered at the nape. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine sculptural detail, conveying a strong and dignified profile. The legend ΓΕΩΡΓΙΟΣ ΚΑΡΑΪΣΚΑΚΗΣ curves along the left periphery in stylized archaic Greek lettering, identifying the subject. |
