Description: It belongs in the second set of coins in 1973 (1973B)
Having grown deeply unpopular, the military junta,in an attempt to prevent further unfavourable developments, held a\"referendum\"in 1973 by which monarchy was abolished, the regime wasrenamed a republic and the yes-votes were reckoned as votes for the election ofGeorgios Papadopoulos, leader of the military coup, as President of greece. Sothis period that lasted up to the dictatorship\'s collapse in 1974 appearssometimes under the name Second Republic. The establishment ofthe new regime saw the minting of a new set of coins (also known as the secondset of 1973) with the following denominations: 10,20 and 50 lepta and1,2,5,10,20 drachmae. The themes displayed in the new coins - exceptthe 10 and 20 lepta coins that have not changes since the first 1973 set - arevirtually different from the ones in the previous issues.
Inall coins, the obverse features the phoenix (the soldier isnow gone in comparison of previous issues) gazing at the rays of the HolySpirit.
