foreign coin 1978

[greydigger]

Son found a foreign coin with 1978 on it.
It is worth 5 somethings ?
sry for bad pics.
under the "5" it says "APAXMAI" but the first A is a triangle.
The "head" side has a bearded fellow and writing around the circumference.
"KIKHAHMOKPATIA EAAMN" or something like that.
Have no idea what country is from. Found in a park in NW Oregon.
Here are some pics from my phone, wish they were better.

It's a Greek 5 drachmai. The portrait on the reverse is that of Aristotle.

Copper-nickel alloy.

20-35¢ in Very Fine to Extremely Fine condition.

Thanks PBK, I thought it might be Greek but googleing that did not show their types of lettering.
Neat fing though here in Oregon.
