The reverse shows the eponymous motif - Noah's Ark

On the reverse of the 1 kg silver coin, the biblical story of Noah is described. He was chosen by God to build a large ship before the Flood, with which he was to save both himself and his relatives, as well as a pair of each animal species. After the ebb of the flight, research showed that Noah's Ark was stranded in the mountains of Ararat. Thus, this mountain has immense symbolic character not only for Christians, but also for the Armenian people, which this unique coin exudes. It shows Noah's ship floating in front of the rising sun and the double peak of Ararat, which saved it from the Flood. In the foreground of the ship is a dove of peace carrying an olive branch in its beak. According to the Bible text, this announced the end of the Flood and thus the end of Noah's journey. Although Mount Ararat is now part of Turkey rather than Armenia, it remains part of the country's 2,500-year history and is still reflected in the national coat of arms.

Armenia is a country with a rich culture and history. Even today, numerous cultural monuments bear witness to this, many of which are even UNESCO World Heritage Sites. This diverse culture can also be seen in the national coat of arms of the country in various symbolisms. This national coat of arms, which shows the four Armenian royal houses of Arschakuni, Artaschesian, Bagratuni and Runianian, was applied to the obverse of the coin in high quality. Then, in the central shield, Mount Ararat and even the contours of Noah's Ark are visible. This shows how closely this story is connected with the history of Armenia. To the left behind the symbolic national coat of arms, the coin shows a proud eagle, to the right of which a lion serves as the heraldic holder. These two animals are supposed to express mental strength and power, but also courage and steadfastness. Below the coat of arms, on the other hand, an upright sword with a chain testifies to the struggle of the poor for freedom and independence. The feather and the ear of corn in the background of the sword symbolize the creativity and peacefulness of the country.
