Aanvullende informatie

Part of a 38-coin series issued by the Central Bank of Armenia to commemorate each letter of the Armenian alphabet — one of the oldest alphabets still in active use, created by the scholar Mesrop Mashtots around 405 AD on commission from the Catholicos Sahak I. The series ran across several years and became one of the most ambitious thematic programs in Armenian numismatic history. The letter Վ, pronounced roughly as the English "V," occupies the twentieth position in Mashtots's original ordering, which has remained essentially unchanged for over 1,600 years.
