| Reverse description | The reverse bears a portrait effigy of the celebrated Greek poet Yiannis Ritsos in left-facing profile, rendered in a detailed artistic style befitting a commemorative issue. The inscription 2009 ΕΤΟΣ ΓΙΑΝΝΗ ΡΙΤΣΟ arcs around the design, identifying the subject and designating 2009 as the Year of Yiannis Ritsos. The composition commemorates the centenary of the poet's birth, with the portrait occupying the central field. The scalloped border of ten indentations frames the entire reverse design. |
