Art Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Beautiful. The simplicity of the Lidice is wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabbs Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 What Art said ... By the way, strictly speaking these are not "Czech" coins since they were issued in the "Czech and Slovak Federation" years - after the end of the CSSR but before the split.

Tiffibunny Posted September 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Then who do they belong to? They're listed under Czech in Krause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Yikes, that Lidice coin strikes a powerful image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tabbs Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 Ah, they must have changed that, though it would not make much sense to me. I have the 2004 KM, and it's in the Czechoslovakia section, in a kind of sub-section at the end. The old name of the unified country was "Czechoslovak Socialist Republic"; its new name (used until the 1993 split) was "Czech and Slovak Federal Republic". The double cross of Slovakia would not be on a Czech coin Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiffibunny Posted September 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 I like these especially because I was there in 1990, though at that time they were still using Czech Socialist Currency. I'll change the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
