Owner's Comments

Greece 10 Lepta (95% Aluminum, 5% Magnesium), 22mm. The 3rd modern drachma version of the Greece 10 Lepta was a holed aluminum coin minted from 1954 to 1971 as a standard circulation strike. However, in 1965 Greece only minted and issued the 10 Lepta either within a 7 piece Lepta/Drachma set in a plastic envelope (20,000) or individual proof coins (4,978). All of the 1965 Lepta and Dracham coins were minted in Vienna, Austria. The obverse features a wreath of 2 branches with (2x15) 30 leaves, crown at the top, date at bottom, and a legend reading Kingdom of Greece in Greek script. The reverse features Grapes above center hole, double denomination below.
