Abstract: The article deals with the construction of several Greek means which are found using externally touching circles and a common tangent. In the end of the article, some connection between the first contrageometric mean and so-called metallic means is mentioned.
Keywords: Pythagorean means, contraharmonic mean, contrageometric mean, metallic means. MSC 2010: 51M15, 26E60
