Meet one of my smallest silver coins of my collection, a 20 Lepta (cents) silver coin from back the 1880s... What a great time that was..I remember it like yesterday!
Just look how small and cute it is:
On the front side it features King George the First of Greece, and reads "ΓΕΩΡΓΙΟΣ Α! ΒΑΣΙΛΕΥΣ ΤΩΝ ΕΛΛΗΝΩΝ" for "George A, King of Greece"
The back side features a crown or something and reads "ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΟΝ ΤΗΣ ΕΛΛΑΔΟΣ 20 ΛΕΠΤΑ 1874" for "Kingdom of Greece, 20 cents"
These coins were minted from 1874-1883 and are 1 g of 0.835 silver.
Small but sexy!
