| Obverse description | A stylized phoenix rising, depicted facing right within a beaded inner circle, with a Greek cross surmounting the bird's head and radiating sun rays emanating from the left side of the field. The design symbolizes the rebirth of the Greek nation. A circular legend in Greek script surrounds the central device, referencing the Hellenic State and the year 1821. The overall composition reflects the neoclassical engraving style of the early Greek state coinage. |
