| Reverse description | The reverse features a highly detailed relief sculpture of a daisy flower in the lower field, its petals and central disc rendered with fine engraving against a mirror-polished background. Perched upon the flower's centre is a stylised butterfly, its body struck in matte silver relief, while both pairs of wings are formed from individually set faceted crystal elements displaying vivid iridescent colours including amber, green, blue, and red. The bilingual good-luck legend 'PRO ŠTĚSTÍ · GOOD LUCK' curves along the upper border in raised Latin lettering. The overall composition combines traditional coin-striking techniques with the insertion of cut crystal inlays, creating a striking three-dimensional decorative effect. |
