Reverse description The reverse features a dramatic, stylised close-up portrait of Jan Palach rendered across the full field, with the face split diagonally into contrasting polished and matte finishes to striking artistic effect. Crossing the face diagonally are two banner-like ribbons bearing the inscriptions PALACHŮV TÝDEN and VĚRNI ZŮSTANEME, with the dates 15.1.–21.1.1989 inscribed along the lower banner, commemorating the week of protest demonstrations in Czechoslovakia. The design employs a bold graphic aesthetic, with the eyes, nose, and lips of Palach rendered in high relief against the divided field. The designer's initial D appears discreetly in the lower right field.
