| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by the official logo of Patras 2006 European Capital of Culture, depicted as a stylized abstract figure in dynamic motion rendered against a dark rectangular field occupying the upper two-thirds of the design. Beneath the logo, the inscription 'ΠΑΤΡΑ 2006' is boldly lettered in Greek capitals, identifying the host city and year. A curved wave motif in the lower field evokes the coastal character of Patras. The legend 'ΠΟΛΙΤΙΣΤΙΚΗ ΠΡΩΤΕΥΟΥΣΑ ΤΗΣ ΕΥΡΩΠΗΣ' arcs along the upper border in Greek script, while 'EUROPEAN CAPITAL OF CULTURE' is inscribed in Latin letters along the lower periphery, providing a bilingual designation befitting the event's pan-European significance. |
