| Reverse description | The reverse features a powerful artistic composition combining two principal commemorative elements: a sculptural relief referencing the Lidice memorial, depicting a ruined stone wall with bullet-scarred masonry rendered in fine relief, and a Latin cross derived from the tombstone inscriptions of Ležáky. The dates 10.6.1942 and 24.6.1942, marking the destruction of Lidice and Ležáky respectively, appear prominently in the field alongside the place names LIDICE and LEŽÁKY. The design is executed in a stark, sombre graphic style befitting the solemn historical subject matter of Nazi reprisals following Operation Anthropoid. |
