Comment
Edge lettering is wrong. Should be 1921 - 1971.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 50 Korun (Pavol Országh Hviezdoslav; Trial Strike) 1971 from Czechoslovakia is that it was designed by renowned Slovak poet and dramatist, Pavol Országh Hviezdoslav. The coin features an image of Hviezdoslav on the obverse, while the reverse side features a stylized image of a kos, a traditional Slovak folk instrument. The coin was minted as a trial strike in 1971, and only a limited number of gold-plated examples were produced, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists and fans of Slovak culture.
