Reverse description Central field depicts a group of five traditional Shrovetide carnival figures (masopustní masky) in full costume, wearing tall conical hats and ruffled collars, rendered in high relief against a deeply recessed mirror-polished background. A dotted decorative arc frames the upper portion of the scene, with stylised plant motifs at the upper right. The two-line Czech legend 'MASOPUSTNÍ PRŮVOD' arcs along the upper rim, and 'S MASKAMI NA HLINECKU' is inscribed in the lower field, referencing the UNESCO-recognised Shrovetide procession with masks in the Hlinecko region of the Czech Republic.
