Reverse description A group of United States Marines raising the American flag atop Mount Suribachi, closely based on the iconic photograph by Joe Rosenthal taken on 23 February 1945, rendered in high relief against a globe motif in the background. The silhouette of the island of Iwo Jima bearing a Japanese flag appears to the right on the globe, providing historical context. The scene is executed with fine sculptural detail, conveying dynamic movement among the figures struggling over rocky terrain. The legend 'HORA SURIBAČI - BITVA O IWO JIMU' arcs across the upper field, while the date '26. BŘEZNA 1945' appears vertically along the left margin.
