Additional information

Cieszyn presents an unusual case in modern European geography: the historic town was partitioned in 1920 following a dispute between Poland and Czechoslovakia, splitting it along the Olza River into Cieszyn (Polish) and Český Těšín (Czech). The two halves have functioned as separate municipalities in separate countries ever since, reunited in practice only after both nations joined the Schengen Area in 2007 — two years after this coin was struck.
