Obverse description The obverse features a central composition dominated by a vintage condenser microphone rendered in high relief, flanked by two early-style broadcast loudspeaker horns arranged symmetrically above. Stylised sound wave patterns in a pixelated or dotted format radiate horizontally across the lower field, evoking a digital audio waveform. The denomination '10 EURO' appears in the left field, while the Slovak national coat of arms — a double cross on a three-peaked mountain — is shown within a shield in the right field. The legend 'SLOVENSKO' arcs along the lower rim with the date '2023' centred above it.

Additional information

Czechoslovak Radio — founded in 1923 — was one of the earliest public broadcasters in Central Europe, launching just months after the BBC and well ahead of most continental competitors. Slovakia's centenary commemorative marks the institution that, during the Nazi occupation, broadcast from exile in London and later became a rare source of uncensored information during the 1968 Warsaw Pact invasion, when Radio Prague's transmissions continued even as Soviet troops occupied the building.
