| Reverse description | An owl, the sacred bird of Athena and emblem of Athens, stands facing with wings closed at center, rendered in the traditional Athenian iconographic style. Flanking the owl are an olive tree to the left and a palm tree to the right, with an amphora positioned at lower center — all classic Athenian civic symbols. The reverse is bordered by a beaded inner circle. The Greek ethnic legend ΑΘΗΝΑΙΩΝ runs around the field, identifying the issuing city. |
