| Reverse description | The Armenian letter Ժ (Zhe), the tenth letter of the Armenian alphabet, is depicted in large format at the centre of the reverse field, rendered in an ornate illuminated manuscript style with interlaced knotwork decoration filling the upper portion of the character. The full Armenian alphabet is inscribed in a continuous circular legend surrounding the central letter, reading around the entire periphery of the coin. A small decorative square ornament appears at the lower left of the central letter. The overall design pays homage to the classical Armenian scribal tradition. |
