| Reverse description | The reverse of this oval proof coin features a striking architectural design inspired by the vaulted ceiling and Gothic tracery of St. Vitus Cathedral, Prague. Radiating ribbed vault segments rendered in fine milled relief occupy the majority of the field, converging toward a large circular rose-window motif at the lower centre, its intricate geometric lacework reproduced with exceptional detail. A circular color insert at the top replicates the same Art Nouveau stained-glass window seen on the obverse, depicting haloed and robed saintly figures in rich polychrome hues. The legend '· KATEDRÁLA SVATÉHO VÍTA · PRAHA ·' curves along the upper-left border in Czech, while the fineness mark 'Ag 925' appears discreetly in the lower-right field. |
