Beschrijving keerzijde A front-facing draped bust portrait of Pierre de Coubertin, founder of the modern Olympic Games, occupies the central field, rendered in low relief with a characteristic moustache and formal attire. A horizontal band of classical Greek meander (key) ornament frames the portrait on either side, evoking the Hellenic origins of the Olympic movement. The dates '1896' and '2004' flank the Cyrillic inscription 'АТИНА' (Athens) in a curved legend across the upper field, commemorating the first and the centenary modern Olympic Games held in Athens.

Aanvullende informatie

Pierre de Coubertin revived the Olympic Games in 1896 partly through sheer force of personal lobbying — the IOC he founded that year was initially little more than a handful of acquaintances he'd recruited at a Paris congress. Bulgaria's connection to that first modern Olympiad is thin, but the 2002 issuance falls squarely within a wave of commemorative gold fractionals produced by post-communist central banks testing collector markets in the early 2000s. KM#263 is a quarter-ducat-sized piece, its 1.24 g format borrowed directly from older European fractional gold traditions.
