'Modern Greek drachma' refers to the currency used in Greece between 1832 and 2001, when it was replaced by the Euro.

Introduction
The drachma was introduced in May of 1832, replacing the first modern Greek currency, the phoenix at par. In common with other currencies of the era, it was placed on a bimetallic standard based on the Spanish dollar: one drachma was equal to 1/6 of the Spanish dollar.
