| Additional information |
The 50 haléřů and its stotin equivalent emerged from the newly independent Czechoslovak state's urgent need to establish a sovereign currency after the collapse of Austria-Hungary in 1918. The interim solution — overstamping Austro-Hungarian notes — gave way to the Czechoslovak koruna by 1919, with coinage following the year after. These early brass pieces were struck at the Kremnica Mint in Slovakia, which had operated continuously since 1328 and became the natural choice for the fledgling republic's first coin production.
