Subject of the commemorative coin:
25th anniversary of the Slovak Republic
Description of the design:
The design symbolises Slovakia’s accession to the European Union and the euro area by means of a stylised arc spanning both a map of Slovakia and a euro symbol surrounded by the stars of the Union – some of which are covered by the map. The coat of arms of Slovakia is depicted on the left side of the design. At the bottom left, in a semi-circle, is the name of the issuing country, ‘SLOVENSKÁ REPUBLIKA’. The date of the country’s foundation, ‘1.1.1993’, and the year of issuance, ‘2018’, are placed one above the other to the right below the map. Between the map and the date are the mint mark of the Kremnica Mint (Mincovna Kremnica), consisting of the initials ‘MK’ between two dies, and the stylised letters ‘PK’, the initials of the designer Pavel Károly. The coin’s outer ring depicts the 12 stars of the European flag.
