The set, whose total weight is two troy ounces of pure gold, contains two bullion coins of the Czech Mint - the Czech Lion and the Eagle with the year 2023.
The Czech Lion: The reverse side of the coin is dominated by the Czech heraldic beast in an unusual realistic rendering, which guards the St. Wenceslas Crown. The obverse side presents lime branches together with an eagle, which is a synthesis of the St. Wenceslas, Moravian and Silesian birds of prey. The author of the relief is the medal maker Asamat Baltaev, DiS.
Eagle: The reverse side of the coin is dominated by a flying golden eagle, which is the lord of the Tatras, with the magnificent mountain peak Kriváň towering below. The obverse side is then covered with ornaments of the Čičmanský pattern, which is a unique addition to Slovak folk architecture. The relief is the work of the medal maker MgA. Martin Dašek.
As the coins of the Czech Mint are issued with the licence of a foreign issuer, which is the island of Niue, their obverse sides bear its necessary elements - the state emblem, the nominal value of 50 DOLLARS (NZD) and the year of issue 2023. |
