| Reverse description | A detailed three-quarter perspective view of the ancient Hellenistic Temple of Garni, a first-century Ionic peristyle temple situated in the Kotayk Province of Armenia, dominates the central field. The temple is depicted with its columned portico, entablature, pediment, and stepped stylobate rendered in fine relief, evoking classical architectural precision. The mirrored field provides strong contrast to the architectural design. Below the temple, the inscription 'ԳԱՌՆԻ' (Garni) appears in bold Armenian script, with 'Ⅰ ԴԱՐ' (1st century) inscribed on the line beneath, identifying the monument and its historical period. |
