正面描述 Central field features a winged allegorical figure, reclining mournfully in a small boat upon stylized waves, lowering a laurel wreath into the sea in a gesture of mourning and commemoration. The composition evokes the 1824 destruction of the island of Kassos during the Greek War of Independence. The Hellenic Republic coat of arms — a quartered shield with a cross, encircled by a laurel wreath — appears in the lower exergue. The denomination '5 ΕΥΡΩ' is inscribed to the left of the central motif, and the dates '1824–2024' with a floral ornament appear to the upper right. The arc legend along the upper rim reads '200 ΧΡΟΝΙΑ ΑΠΟ ΤΗΝ ΚΑΤΑΣΤΡΟΦΗ ΤΗΣ ΚΑΣΟΥ', with 'ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΔΗΜΟΚΡΑΤΙΑ' inscribed along the lower rim.

背面描述 Central field depicts a haloed figure of Saint Marina (Hagia Marina), rendered in the style of a Byzantine ecclesiastical seal, standing frontally and brandishing a hammer in her right hand while subduing a demonic creature at her left side. A rectangular cartouche bearing the inscription 'HAGIA MARINA' in Greek characters appears to the right of the saint's head. The entire central design is framed by a circular band of archaic or pseudo-medieval Latin lettering reading 'SFRAGIST OKCNIOY SHNISC KAOE TUNTEGARISNAS MERLINKAOIA', replicating the legend of a historic Byzantine seal associated with Kassos. The overall design references a medieval sphragistic (seal) tradition, underscoring the island's deep historical and religious heritage.

附加信息

Kassos, the southernmost island of the Dodecanese, lost nearly its entire population in June 1824 when Ottoman and Egyptian forces razed the island in retaliation for Kassiot naval raids supporting the Greek Revolution. Estimates place the dead at several hundred and the enslaved at over two thousand — a catastrophe that effectively depopulated an island that had fielded one of the more capable small merchant fleets in the Aegean.

The 2024 issue marks the bicentennial of the destruction, part of Greece's broader commemorative program tied to the 1821 independence anniversary cycle.
