Slovakia's 500 Koruna series commissioned from Thomas De La Rue represents an interesting transitional moment — the newly independent republic, established in January 1993, needed a credible currency fast, and outsourcing to one of the world's most established security printers was the pragmatic solution while domestic printing infrastructure caught up. Bubák handled the design; the intaglio engraving went to Václav Fajt, a Czech engraver whose involvement across the early Slovak series reflects the shared technical workforce inherited from the Czechoslovak period.
Pick 27 is the 1996 dated issue within this denomination's run, which saw multiple signature varieties.
