| Additional information |
The Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia was a Nazi-administered puppet state carved out of the rump of Czechoslovakia in March 1939, and its coinage program was designed from the outset to signal the erasure of the First Republic's monetary identity. This zinc trial piece for the 10 haléřů dates to a period when the Reich was aggressively substituting base metals across occupied territories — copper and nickel had military priority. Zinc was the imposed solution.
Trial pieces from the Protectorate's zinc coinage program are genuinely scarce in the numismatic record, surviving largely through mint archives rather than circulation.
