| Reverse description | A Mediterranean monk seal (Monachus monachus) is depicted swimming gracefully in a coloured underwater scene, with light rays rendered in blue-green tones filtering down from the surface and a rocky seabed with green algae visible below. The binomial scientific name ΦΩΚΙΑ Monachus monachus appears in the field to the lower left of the seal. The arc legend ΑΠΕΙΛΟΥΜΕΝΑ ΖΩΑ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΑΣ curves along the upper rim. The denomination 5 ΕΥΡΩ and the date 2024 are inscribed to the lower right in the field. The colour application highlights the aquatic environment in vivid teal and turquoise tones, contrasting with the silver-finished effigy of the seal. |
