Obverse description The obverse presents a stark composition of barbed wire barriers in the foreground, with the numeral '68' prominently rendered in the field behind them, evoking the repressive era of normalisation that followed the August 1968 Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia. The Slovak coat of arms is positioned at the upper portion of the coin. A horizontal line divides the lower register, beneath which the denomination '10 EURO' appears, while the issuing country name 'SLOVENSKO' and the date '2018' are inscribed above the dividing line. The overall design employs a restrained, modernist aesthetic to convey historical gravity.
