The contemporary Greek flag

Obverse

Today’s Greek flag, adopted in 1978, features a white cross in the upper left corner and nine equally thick horizontal stripes, alternately blue and white. The number nine alludes to the number of syllables in the phrase «Ελευθερία ή θάνατος» (“Freedom or Death”) and to the number of letters in the word «Ελευθερία» (“Freedom”). At top, the year 1978; at bottom, the minting year and laurel branches
1978 – 2021
