Greece 🇬🇷 2020 €2 Commemorative Proof Coin dedicated to “2,500 years since the Battle of Thermopylae”.

In 480 BC, the Greeks, under the command of Leonidas, king of Sparta, tried to halt the advance of the vast Persian army at the narrow pass of Thermopylae. The Greeks’ self-sacrifice, following Leonidas’s refusal to surrender his arms with the famously defiant retort “Come and take them” («Μολών λαβέ»), is a timeless inspiration for every nation fighting for freedom.

Maximum issue: 5,000 pieces
