背面描述 The reverse reproduces the iconic design of the ancient Athenian tetradrachm, featuring a stylized owl standing facing, rendered in incuse relief to evoke the archaic coinage of Athens. An olive branch with berries appears to the upper left of the owl, a reference to the sacred olive tree of Athena. The Greek letters AOE are inscribed to the right of the owl, an abbreviation of AΘHNAION (of the Athenians), faithfully replicating the ancient prototype. The overall design is set within a shallow incuse square, imitating the quadratum incusum of classical Greek coinage.

附加信息

The Democratic Republic of Congo has issued a long-running series of coins reproducing ancient Greek types, targeting the bullion and collector market rather than domestic circulation. This 2003 piece replicates an Athenian tetradrachm design — one of the ancient world's most widely recognized coin types, circulated across the Mediterranean from roughly the 5th century BC onward as a trusted trade currency far beyond Attica's borders.

At 1.24 g of .9999 fine gold, the piece belongs to a format popular among fractional gold issuers in the early 2000s, when spot prices made sub-2g denominations commercially viable for casual collectors. KM#184 confirms its catalog legitimacy, though Congo's commemorative output from this period was extensive and issued primarily through European distributors.
