This week the Greek Numismatic Program 2022 has been released, which showed you a few days ago the national commemorative 2-euro coin dedicated to “200 years of the first Greek Constitution”. Today, thanks to a catalog and a video from the Bank of Greece, we will learn about all the issues that will be made available to collectors in 2022.
The flagship of last year's numismatic program was the special series of commemorative coins to celebrate 200 years since the Greek Revolution of 1821. However, since the Greek revolution spanned almost an entire decade, we will have the opportunity, in the coming years, , to commemorate several upcoming bicentennials of the heroic Greek uprising.
Thus, the 2022 numismatic program will feature three commemorations in relation to the Greek Revolution:
A silver coin dedicated to the 200th anniversary of the Chios massacre, the tragic event immortalized by Eugène Delacroix.
A €2 commemorative coin to honor the bicentenary of the First Greek Constitution, adopted in January 1822 during the First National Assembly of Greek rebels.
A silver coin dedicated to Lord Byron, the most iconic Philhellenic, with which a new series begins in tribute to the Philhellenic movement that did so much to promote the cause of Greek independence.
Two other themes feature prominently on the 2022 numismatic program:
The fascinating Antikythera Mechanism, in a new series launched this year, titled Ancient Greek Technology.
The 100 years of the Asia Minor Disaster, which led to the eradication of the Greek element from Asia Minor.
The 2022 numismatic program will of course also include coins from other popular long-running series:
Ares, god of war (belonging to the Gods of Olympus series )
Xenophon, Athenian historian and prolific writer of various works (in the Greek Historians series )
The Ancient Theater of Epidaurus, one of the best preserved from ancient times (in the Cultural Heritage series ).
Paeonia Parnassica, a majestic wild flower endemic to Mounts Parnassos and Elikonas in central Greece (from the series Flora endemic to Greece )
2022 – International Year of Artisanal Fisheries and Aquaculture, which follows the tradition of honoring the years declared by the UN.
The charming island of Chios (from the series Greek tourism ).
Last but not least, a common type commemorative 2 euro coin is dedicated for 35 years of the Erasmus programme.
