Obverse description The obverse depicts a mounted knight in full armour riding a horse to the right, rendered in high relief against a detailed background featuring a hilltop castle. The legend SLOVENSKO is arranged vertically along the left and right rim, with the date 2016 appearing at the upper right. The Slovak coat of arms — a double cross on a three-peaked mountain — is positioned at the lower right of the field. The overall composition evokes the historical period of the Hungarian Kingdom and the aristocratic milieu of Juraj Turzo.
