The Consignment Deposits and Loans Fund is a legal entity in public law, operating under the supervision of the Ministry of Finance. It was founded by Law 1608/1919 as a specialised credit institution, entrusted with the exclusive safekeeping and management of consignments of all kinds and with providing loans for public utility works. Its scope of activities was later expanded to include treasury services for local authorities and other legal persons in public law and the extension of housing loans to public sector employees. Over the course of an entire century, the Fund has undeniably made a significant contribution to Greece’s economic development. Its mission to serve the public and social interest, its European orientation, its strong financial position, as well as its reformed institutional framework, which provides for the establishment of a separate business line of commercial banking activities, augur well for its future.

The photo is indicative, the coin you will receive is in the original box along with the certificate of authenticity.
Demokritos is considered the forefather of modern atomic theory. He was born in Abdera, Thrace, and mentored by Lefkippos. His extensive travels in Ionia brought him into contact with the teachings of the great Ionian philosophers (Thales, Anaximander, Anaximenes, Herakleitos). A truly universal spirit, he was erudite in almost all fields of human knowledge, as evidenced by the diversity of his writings on ethics, physics, mathematics, music, cosmology and technology, and visited many places of the then known world. According to his atomic theory, all material bodies consist of invisible, indestructible, unalterable and indivisible particles, which he called atoma (“atoms”), the Greek word for “indivisible”. In reaction to Parmenides’s static philosophy, Demokritos saw the world as being in constant motion and change. He also refuted the concept of teleology, i.e. that there is an underlying purpose to everything. Demokritos was the last of the great pre-Socratic philosophers, who were to have a profound influence on modern philosophy.

200 euro 2014 Proof Aristotelis Aristotle
Greek collectible gold proof coin with a face value of 200 euros, for Aristotle (384-322 BC), maximum number of 600 pieces, Bank of Greece mint, issued in 2014.
A student of Plato’s and tutor to Alexander the Great, Aristotle was one of the great figures of ancient Greek philosophy. Born in Stageira, Chalkidiki, Aristotle spent many years in Athens, where, after leaving Plato’s Academy, he later founded a school of his own, the Lyceum. Distancing himself from the idealism of the Academy, Aristotle believed that true knowledge should be acquired through empirical observation and sense perception. His work laid the foundations for numerous disciplines, such as logic, physics, biology, psychology, ethics, rhetoric and political science. His influence was immense until the Renaissance, spreading across major civilisations, from the Arab to the Western European.
