| Reverse description | The central device features two gold-plated nude male figures rendered in the classical Greek athletic tradition, depicted in full stride as ancient Olympic runners, their musculature finely detailed in high relief. The runners are selectively gold-plated, creating a striking two-tone contrast against the matte silver field. In the background, incuse engravings of a classical Greek temple with columns and a solitary column are visible to the left and right respectively. The legend OLYMPIC GAMES is inscribed along the upper border in Latin letters, while the denomination 1000 ТӨГРӨГ appears in the lower field within the central oval device, and the date 1996 is placed at the bottom exergue. |
