Description : The Cyprus Institute of Neurology and Genetics (CING), founded 30 years ago, is internationally recognised in the field of neurogenetics and plays an essential role as a national and international centre of excellence for innovative research (including on multiple sclerosis) and postgraduate education. The coin motif designed by Georgios Stamatopoulos shows two overlapping star‐shaped nerve cells with perikaryon (cell nucleus) and "receiving antennas", the dendrites. Around the outside of the motif is engraved "ΙΝΣΤΙΟΥΤΟ ΝΕΥΡΟΛΟΓΙΑΣ & ΓΕΝΕΤΙΚΗΣ ΚΥΠΡΟΥ 1990‐2020" (Cypriot Institute of Neurology and Genetics 1990‐2020) and at the bottom "ΚΥΠΡΟΣ ‐ KIBRIS" (Cyprus, in Greek and Turkish). The coin was minted without a mint mark by the Greek mint Νομισματοκοπειο / Nomismatokopeio (Bank of Greece ‐ Mint) in Halandri.
