| Reverse description | A male torch-bearer is depicted in mid-stride at centre, holding aloft a flaming Olympic torch in his raised right hand. To the left in the background stands the Parthenon of Athens, and to the right the Temple of Heaven in Beijing, symbolising the passage of the Olympic flame between the 2004 and 2008 Games. The legend OLYMPIC GAMES arcs prominently along the upper periphery, with the subsidiary inscription FROM ATHENS TO BEIJING positioned below it in two lines. The dates 2004 and 2008 appear in the lower left and lower right fields respectively, and a beaded border encircles the design. |
