This intricately detailed item presents a modern reproduction of an ancient Greek Panathenaic amphora coin, echoing the grandeur of the classical games held in Athens. The reverse side of the piece is adorned with a high-relief amphora, flanked by Greek letters which reference the Panathenaic Games, a festival that combined religious devotion and competitive athleticism. These amphorae were traditionally awarded to victors and filled with sacred olive oil from Athena's groves—both a mark of prestige and a valuable commodity in the ancient world.
The obverse side features a stylized shield motif, reflecting the military and civic pride of the Athenian polis. The double-C design may allude to hoplite shield shapes or act as a symbolic link to protective divinities. This coin's clean, circular border and bold design reinforce its ceremonial role rather than everyday use. As a novodel, this piece is ideal for collectors focused on classical motifs or educational displays exploring Greek civic identity, religion, and public spectacle.
