| Obverse description | A stylized olive branch wreath rendered in delicate relief frames the central field, encircling the five Olympic rings with the legend ΑΘΗΝΑ 2004 inscribed above. The denomination 100 ΕΥΡΩ appears in bold characters along the lower portion of the field. A raised inner circle separates the central motif from the outer border, which is adorned with twelve five-pointed stars in the European Union tradition. The overall design evokes the classical Olympic spirit in a refined, modern numismatic composition. |

| Reverse description | A detailed view of the Acropolis of Athens is depicted in high relief at the centre of the field, with the Parthenon prominently featured atop its rocky promontory. The legend Η ΑΚΡΟΠΟΛΗ ΤΗΣ ΑΘΗΝΑΣ is inscribed around the design, identifying the ancient monument in Greek script. A raised circular border encloses the central motif, outside of which twelve five-pointed stars form the customary European Union ring along the outer rim. The composition reflects a classical architectural rendering executed in a refined engraving style befitting a commemorative gold issue. |
