| Beschrijving keerzijde | Draped bust of Haik Nahapet facing right, portrayed as a bearded patriarch with elaborately styled hair and a jeweled collar, rendered in finely detailed high relief. Two laurel branches flank the effigy, rising from the lower field on either side to frame the portrait. The Armenian legend ՀԱՅԿ ՆԱՀԱՊԵՏ arcs along the upper border in Armenian script. The name HAIK appears in Latin characters along the lower exergue beneath the bust. The overall composition evokes a classical commemorative portrait style befitting a legendary ancestral figure. |

The Nagorno-Karabakh Republic — internationally unrecognized but self-governing since the 1994 ceasefire that ended the First Karabakh War — issued collector coinage partly as a tool of soft statecraft, asserting the trappings of sovereignty that formal diplomatic recognition denied. This piece honors Hayk Nahapet, the legendary patriarch-archer of Armenian mythology credited with founding the Armenian nation, whose story appears in the 5th-century histories of Moses of Khoren. The choice is pointed: grounding a disputed state's identity in the deepest available stratum of Armenian historical memory.
Struck in 2004, nearly a decade before the Central Bank developed more elaborate commemorative programs.
