Reverse description The reverse presents a bold architectural rendering of the Dancing House (Tančící dům) in Prague, the celebrated deconstructivist building designed by Frank Gehry and Vlado Milunić, completed in 1996. The two signature towers — the cylindrical glazed 'Ginger' tower and the curved 'Fred' tower with its window-studded façade — are depicted in dynamic, tilted perspective, conveying the building's characteristic sense of movement. The legend 'SOUČASNOST · TANČÍCÍ DŮM V PRAZE' runs along the upper periphery, and the year of issue '2005' appears in the lower exergue. The composition fills the field to the rim, with the mint mark visible among the reverse lettering.
