Muránska planina, a karst plateau in central Slovakia straddling the Revúca and Brezno districts, was designated a national park in 1976 — one of the smallest in Slovakia but notable for hosting one of Europe's last wild horse populations, the Huçul breed reintroduced there in the 1990s. The Slovak commemorative silver program has issued regional and ecological subjects consistently since the early post-independence years, and this 2006 piece falls within a well-documented series tied to protected landscape areas.
KM#84 was struck at the Kremnica Mint, the same facility that has produced Slovak coinage without interruption since 1328.
