Obverse description At center, the heraldic Bohemian double-tailed lion rampant, crowned, rendered in bold relief as the Czech national coat of arms. The legend ČESKÁ REPUBLIKA curves along the upper periphery, with the date 2000 positioned along the lower periphery, flanked by decorative dots. The mintmark of the Czech Mint appears below the lion device in the lower field. The design is framed by a plain inner border running near the rim.

Additional information

The Czech 10 Koruna has an odd institutional history: it is issued by Česká mincovna, a private joint-stock company operating under license, rather than by a state mint — an arrangement that remains unusual among European coinage systems. The Czech National Bank retains authority over design and specification, but the actual striking is entirely privatized. By 2000, the series was well into its circulating run, having been introduced with the currency split following Czechoslovakia's dissolution on January 1, 1993.
