| Reverse description | The reverse presents an architectural composition commemorating the millennium of Břevnov Monastery, founded in 993 AD. At left and centre, a Romanesque stone column with carved capital and an adjoining semicircular arch — vestiges of the original 10th-century crypt — are depicted in bold relief, conveying the monastery's early medieval origins. To the right, a representation of the Baroque Church of Saint Margaret (sv. Markéta) is shown, with its characteristic twin towers and ornate roofline. The arced legend 'KLÁŠTER BŘEVNOVSKÝ 993·1993' runs along the left periphery, while the Latin inscription 'ARCHISTERIUM BREVNOVIENSE' appears in two lines in the upper right field. The engraver's monogram is located at the base of the column. |
