The Greece 2024 2 euro commemorative coin celebrates the 50th anniversary of the restoration of democracy in the Hellenic Republic. The national side features a design inspired by the ancient Athenian tetradrachm, depicting the goddess Athena alongside an owl, which serves as a profound symbol of wisdom and the historical roots of democratic governance. This imagery connects the modern political landscape of Greece to its classical heritage, honouring the transition from military dictatorship to a stable parliamentary system in 1974. By incorporating these iconic motifs, the coin reflects the enduring national commitment to liberty and the rule of law that defines contemporary Greek society. This issue was minted in 2024 with a total mintage of 740,500 pieces.
