| Reverse description | A panoramic view of the Church of the Holy Cross (Surb Khach) on Aghtamar Island in Lake Van fills the central field, depicted against a mountainous landscape with horizontal water lines representing the lake in the foreground. The numeral 1700 appears prominently in the upper right field, with the commemorative date range 301-2001 below it, marking 1700 years of Armenian Christianity. The Armenian legend ՔՐԻՍՏՈՆԵԱՅ ՀԱՅԱՍՏԱՆ (Christian Armenia) arcs along the upper periphery in Armenian script, while CHRISTIAN ARMENIA curves along the lower border in Latin script. The name AKHTAMAR appears in Latin characters on the right side, and ԱԽԹԱՄAR in Armenian on the left, with a beaded border framing the entire design. |
