| Reverse description | Conjoined busts of Pierre de Coubertin and Dimitrios Vikelas are depicted in high relief at centre, both facing left in overlapping profile, with Coubertin shown in the foreground. The figures are rendered in a realistic portrait style with fine detail in the facial features and period dress. The legend ΠΙΕΡ ΝΤΕ ΚΟΥΜΠΕΡΤΕΝ ΔΗΜΗΤΡΙΟΣ ΒΙΚΕΛΑΣ curves around the upper periphery in Greek script, identifying both founders of the modern Olympic movement. The date 2000 appears in the lower field below the portraits. |
