| Reverse description | A nude or semi-draped female figure is depicted in a dynamic, slightly reclining pose with one arm raised above her head, personifying the harvest or agricultural fertility. To her right, a large sheaf of wheat is prominently rendered, while two linden branches flank the composition on the left. The figure is executed in a bold Art Nouveau or early Art Deco style with strong sculptural relief. The reverse field is otherwise unadorned, with no legend or denomination present. |

Trial strikes for the Czechoslovak koruna coinage were produced in the early 1920s as the newly independent republic worked to establish its own monetary identity following the dissolution of Austria-Hungary in 1918. Multiple compositions and weight standards were tested before final specifications were locked in — silver trials like this one were ultimately set aside in favor of cupro-nickel for the circulating issue, making silver examples survivors of a decision process rather than a production run.
