Sexy 10 Drachmai Dimitra Silver Coin

Just showing off one of my recent additions in my silver collection, a 1930s 10 drachma coin. Definitely one of my favorites, featuring the sexy greek ancient goddess Dimitra on the front side:

Dimitra was the goddess of agriculture back in the days, which explains why wheat is the main theme on the backside of the coin:

The back side also reads, "ΕΛΛΗΝΙΚΗ ΔΗΜΟΚΡΑΤΙΑ, 10 ΔΡ." which stands for GREEK REPUBLIC, 10 DRACMAI

My coin is a bit beat up but still most of the features are clearly visible. I got it for about 4 euros in case you wonder.
