Beschrijving keerzijde A classically styled male torch-bearer is depicted in dynamic three-quarter pose, his right arm raised aloft holding a flaming Olympic torch, against a background featuring ancient Greek architectural columns in low relief. The figure is rendered in a neo-classical artistic style evoking antiquity and the Olympic tradition. A beaded border encircles the entire design. The legend ΧΧΙΙΙ ΟΛΥΜΠΙΑΔΑ curves along the lower periphery, and the engraver's initials 'ΒΣ' appear at lower right.

Aanvullende informatie

Issued to mark the 90th anniversary of the modern Olympic Games revival, this coin was struck the year Los Angeles hosted the Summer Olympics — a Games the Soviet Union and thirteen allied nations boycotted in retaliation for the U.S.-led boycott of Moscow four years earlier. Greece, as the original host nation, participated regardless of Cold War politics.

The Bank of Greece produced several collector-oriented silver issues throughout the 1980s, most in limited quantities for the international numismatic market rather than domestic circulation.
