Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design of Wenceslas Pregnant, which is not a common depiction of the saint. The coin's design was created by the French artist, Joaquim Jimenez, and it shows Wenceslas with a prominent belly, symbolizing his role as a protector of the faith and the future king of Bohemia. This design was specifically chosen to commemorate the 900th anniversary of Wenceslas' death and to highlight his importance in European history and culture.
