| Obverse lettering | ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΟΝ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ 21 ΑΠΡΙΛΙΟΥ 1967 20 • ΔΡΑΧΜΑΙ • (Translation: KINGDOM OF GREECE 21 APRIL 1967 20 • DRACHMAI •) |
| Reverse description | A draped female figure, personifying Greece or Victory, is depicted riding a rearing horse across stylized waves, her right arm outstretched in a gesture of proclamation or triumph. The figure wears a veil and classical robes, rendered in a sculptural, high-relief style characteristic of Nikos Perantinos's engraving work. The date '1973' appears to the left of the central design, while the engraver's signature 'Ν. ΠΕΡΑΝΤΙΝΟΣ' is inscribed along the lower left rim. The coin's border features an inner ring of dashes and dots alternating in an ornamental pattern. The reverse exudes a neoclassical aesthetic consistent with mid-twentieth-century Greek numismatic tradition. |
