alganbagerap Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2490 Posts	Posted 03/07/2010 04:11 am hollandcoinhouse.com lists the sladkovic piece @ 15.00 euros as a medal. Krause does not list either as coins. Edited by alganbagerap 03/07/2010 04:12 am Report this Post to the Staff
chrisild Pillar of the Community Germany 1238 Posts	Posted 03/07/2010 06:51 am Agreed, probably medals. What does the other side of either piece show? Actually both Myslbek and Sládkovi#269; were commemorated on CSSR coins in that year (1972), but those coins have different designs. I don't quite understand what the "100" and the "1872-1972" mean. Sure, in the case of Sládkovi#269; that would be the 100th anniversary of his death (he lived from 1820 until 1872), but Myslbek? Born in 1848, died in 1922. Hmm. Seems that at least the Myslbek coin was designed by Zden#283;k Kolá#345;ský, by the way. Kolá#345;ský is a well-renowned sculptor who also designed various coins from Czechoslovakia. Some more of his medals are here and here for example ... (Edit) sorry, seems the characters got messed up. But if you follow the links, you can see the names.

turtleoverhead Pillar of the Community Australia 585 Posts	Posted 03/07/2010 5:12 pm There are hot discussions about those among numismatics in Czech Republic. Basically they are "The Pattern" (A coin submitted to the coin issuing authorities as a proposed issue but not necessarily one which is adopted.) They were planed to be sold abroad (see an Italian version) The number "100" means denomination but not the bank was involved and a whole project was an officially unofficial suspicious exercise of Communist Party big shots. Mintage is somewhere between 1000 and 1500 pieces for normal and 500 for PROOF. Approximate value $60,- Report this Post to the Staff
