100th Anniversary of the Czechoslovak Koruna

Obverse

In the middle of the obverse side of the token is the logo of the Czech National Bank “ČNB”, which is partly overlapped by a depiction of a 1-koruna stamp dating from 1919. Shields bearing heraldic animals from the large national coat-of-arms can be found in the upper part. The Czech lion is in the middle, with the Moravian eagle to the left and the Silesian eagle to the right. The motif of the reverse side of the 1921 Czechoslovak 50-heller coin, two bundles of grain wrapped in ribbon, is shown below the lower part of the logo. The shields bearing heraldic animals and the bundles of grain are connected from the left and the right with linden leaves to form a circular composition. The anniversary and abbreviated monetary unit “100 LET Kč” are written in the lower part of the coin field. The outer circle of the token features the unclosed name of the state “ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA”. The words are separated by asterisks.

Reverse

The reverse side of the token features a stylised monumental Czech heraldic lion bearing a shield with the coat-of-arms of Slovakia. The motif of the reverse side of the 1922 Czechoslovak 1-koruna coin is located below the lion. Written around the outer circle is the text in Czech “100 LET ČESKO-SLOVENSKÉ KORUNY” and the years “1919” and “2019”. The text and the years are separated by asterisks. The surname of the author of the coin, the sculptor Vladimír Oppl, is located on the left below the lion’s paw.

Comments

This token fully has the same design like the Czech 2019 100 million Korun commemorative train, with the only exception being the text on the lower part of the obverse saying “100 LET Kč” instead of “100 MILIONŮ Kč” as on the original coin.

As of 07th April 2026, this token can be purchased at the Czech National Bank’s Visitor Centre in Prague for 16 CZK, which equals approximately 0,65 EUR or 0,76 USD.

There also is a little information card coming with the coin when it’s purchased:
