| Reverse description | Central field displays an intricate decorative motif of interlocking spirals in the distinctive Mycenaean artistic tradition, evoking the ornamental frescoes and architectural reliefs associated with the ancient citadel of Tiryns. The spiral composition radiates symmetrically from the centre, referencing the Late Bronze Age artistic heritage of the Argolid region. The legend ΑΡΧΑΙΑ ΤΥΡΙΝΘΑ - ΜΥΚΗΝΕΣ (Ancient Tiryns - Mycenae) encircles the design along the periphery in Greek characters. The overall execution is in proof finish with sharply struck relief against a polished field. |
