| Beschrijving keerzijde | Bearded bust of Homer facing slightly left, portrayed in the classical antique style with flowing wavy hair and a full beard rendered in fine detail. The effigy is based on a well-known ancient sculptural representation of the legendary Greek poet. The Greek legend 'ΟΜΗΡΟΣ' appears along the left rim and '800π.Χ.' along the right rim, indicating the approximate period of Homer's flourishing circa 800 BC. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued as part of a broader European ECU coinage program in which individual nations produced collector pieces denominated in the pre-euro accounting unit, this Greek entry honored Homer at a moment when Greece was making pointed cultural arguments about its place at the heart of European civilization. The ECU series had no legal tender circulation function in practical terms — these were struck purely for the collector market and diplomatic gifting.
The X# prefix in the Krause catalog designates it as an unofficial or fantasy issue, meaning it circulated neither in Greece nor across European monetary channels.
