| Reverse description | A left-facing portrait bust of the Slovak poet Pavol Országh Hviezdoslav dominates the field, rendered in high relief with finely detailed facial features including a prominent moustache. The legend 'PAVOL ORSZÁGH' arcs along the upper left periphery, while the commemorative dates '1921-1971' are inscribed vertically along the right rim, marking the fiftieth anniversary of his death. A facsimile of Hviezdoslav's cursive signature 'Hviezdoslav' is engraved across the lower field, and the engraver's initial 'D' appears at the lower rim. |
