Among these, particular attention is drawn to the medals issued in collaboration with the Bank of Greece and its Employees\u2019 Association, as well as to those medals highlighting the Greek archaeological heritage (ODAP, Acropolis Museum).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The second section includes the commemorative medals issued by the Hellenic Parliament in collaboration with the National Mint in order to mark significant national anniversaries. The exhibition showcases nineteen medals, which were donated to the Numismatic Museum in 2018 and 2025. These medals are awarded by the President of the Parliament, primarily to Heads of State and Parliaments, representing the highest honour bestowed by the Hellenic Parliament.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>The final section displays the commemorative and anniversary medals issued on behalf of the Numismatic Museum since 2003, on the occasion of the European Heritage Days and other significant anniversaries. The obverse bears depictions inspired from ancient, Roman\/Greco-Roman, Byzantine, and modern coins from the museum\u2019s collections, and on the reverse they bear the fa\u00e7ade of the Iliou Melathron, which houses the museum. In this same section, the 2025 commemorative medal will be presented alongside its cast, master dies and working dies used in its production.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Numismatic Museum in collaboration with the National Mint (IETA) of the Bank of Greece and the Hellenic Parliament organises a temporary exhibition entitled: \u201cMemorabile.
