The reverse of the coin depicts a dove with an olive branch in its beak, which, according to legend, he brought to Noah as a sign of finding land.

The olive branch symbolizes hope, life and peace.

The Noah’s Ark series of silver investment coins began to be issued in July 2011 by the Bank of Armenia. Coins of a different denomination with a similar design were also issued. Investment coins in the Republic of Armenia can be used as a means of payment with practically no restrictions, with the exception of coins issued in 2013. They go into circulation on the international market.
