Obverse description The obverse features the bold, large-format legend 'SLOVENSKÁ REPUBLIKA' dominating the field, with the text arranged in three lines across the coin in a striking graphic design. The Slovak national coat of arms — a shield bearing a double patriarchal cross mounted on three hills — is centrally positioned within the lettering. The date '1995' appears in the lower portion of the field beneath the legend. The overall design employs a modernist typographic style with oversized lettering that frames the heraldic device.
