Beschrijving keerzijde An owl, emblematic of Athena and evoking the classical Athenian tetradrachm tradition, is depicted perched atop an aryballos-style vase to the left of the central round hole, rendered in fine relief with detailed feathering. To the lower right of the hole, an olive branch is shown, referencing ancient Greek symbolism. The denomination numeral 5 appears in large format in the upper right field, with the Greek legend ΛΕΠΤΑ below it to the right of the hole. The word ESSAI is incuse along the upper right inner border, confirming the pattern status. The engraver's signature CH. PILLET is inscribed along the lower field. The design is enclosed by a beaded border.

Aanvullende informatie

Pattern strikes for Greek minor coinage in 1912 were produced in anticipation of a denominational overhaul that the First Balkan War immediately complicated. Greece entered that war in October 1912, and the fiscal disruptions that followed meant many proposed issues never reached circulation. KM#E24 survives as one of several nickel trial pieces evaluated that year but never adopted for regular production.
