Comment
Minted somewhere after second world war, likely trial strikes for new currency with old dies.
Interesting fact
The Pattern 1 Koruna (Trial Strike) ND from Czechoslovakia made of Copper weighing 7.32 g is a rare and unique coin, with only a few known examples in existence. It was minted in the early 20th century as a trial strike, meaning it was not intended for circulation and was instead used to test the dies and minting process. The coin's design features a portrait of a woman representing the Czechoslovak Republic, surrounded by an ornate border and inscriptions in Czech. The coin's rarity and historical significance make it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
