| Reverse description | Central field features the crowned coat of arms of the Cretan State, depicting a quartered shield bearing the Greek cross and horizontal stripes, surmounted by a royal crown with decorative detailing. The circular legend 'ΚΡΗΤΙΚΗ ΠΟΛΙΤΕΙΑ' arcs across the upper portion of the field, while the denomination '50 ΛΕΠΤΑ' is inscribed in two lines across the lower field, flanking the base of the shield. The overall composition is framed by a continuous beaded border, consistent with the work of engraver Henri-Auguste Patey. |
