200 Korun Saint Zdislava of Lemberk

Zdislava of Lemberk, a 13th-century Bohemian noblewoman beatified in 1907 and canonized by John Paul II in 1995, was commemorated here as part of the Czech National Bank's ongoing silver series honoring Czech saints and historical figures launched after the dissolution of Czechoslovakia. Her canonization came just seven years before this coin's issue, making the subject unusually current by hagiographic standards.
