The reverse of this Silver coin features Pheidippides starting his run. In his hand, a golden olive branch, glinting like victory. Behind him, Greek warriors raise their arms in victory. Above, the inscription: "HISTORY OF MARATHON" – the name of the coin. The obverse of this Silver coin shifts to the final stretch. Pheidippides has reached Athens. The branch still rising. The Parthenon looms in the distance, sacred and proud. Citizens gaze in surprise. A woman clutches her child. A dog barks. This is not just the end of a run. It’s the birth of a myth. Around the obverse, the inscriptions: "5 DOLLARS" – the face value, "2025" – the year of issue, "Liberia" – the issuing country, and "Ag999" – the purity of Silver.
