The denomination of 1 oz and the fineness of Ag 999 (Argentum) are shown in the bottom right-hand corner next to the coat of arms. Directly below the coat of arms is the face value of 500 dram in Armenian and English, with the respective year of minting shown below that.

Reverse of the Armenia Noah’s Ark 1 oz silver coins

On the reverse of all denominations, a symbolic scene from the biblical story of Noah’s Ark is depicted, in which Noah sent out a dove after the Flood, which returned bearing an olive branch. The sun-drenched mountains of Armenia, including Mount Ararat, can be seen in the background. In the centre, you can see Noah’s Ark, which, according to tradition, is said to have housed a pair of every species of animal. In the foreground is the dove from the story, which has since come to symbolise life, hope and peace. At the bottom right, along the edge of the coin, you can see the inscription ‘NOAH’S ARK’. The words ‘Noah’s Ark’ are also engraved in Armenian along the upper edge of the coin.
