Comment

As pre-war coinage circulated in after war years, new trials were struck in search for new coinage measurements. As old dies were used, those trials appear with frozen dates.

According to Jozef Petrovič - Niektoré menej známe pokusné razby československých mincí this coin was produced in 1953 as material and weight trial for 3 heller.
