| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a female javelin thrower in dynamic mid-throw pose, rendered in high relief against a polished field. Behind her, a circular vignette shows a second athlete in a classical style, evoking the ancient Olympic tradition. The dates '1896' and '1996' flank the central design in the lower field, commemorating the centennial of the modern Olympic Games, while '1995' appears in the exergue. The curved legend 'FROM ATHENS TO ATLANTA' arcs across the upper portion of the field. |
