| Reverse description | The reverse presents a detailed panoramic view of the historic town of Litoměřice, depicting its characteristic skyline with the distinctive chalice-topped tower of the Town Hall, the spires of St. Stephen's Cathedral, and the ornate Renaissance facades of the town square rendered in fine relief. The architectural composition fills the upper two-thirds of the field, capturing the town's preserved medieval and Renaissance character. Below the cityscape, the two-line legend MĚSTO LITOMĚŘICE is inscribed in bold lettering, with the date 2022 centered beneath it in the lower field. The engraver's signature initial appears unobtrusively within the architectural scene. |

| Additional information |
The Litoměřice issue is part of the Czech National Bank's ongoing series documenting historic towns, a program that has quietly become one of the more rigorous documentary coinages in Central Europe — each release tied to municipal archival research rather than artistic committee preference. Litoměřice, one of Bohemia's oldest royal towns, received its charter privileges under John of Luxembourg in the 14th century and served for centuries as a significant ecclesiastical center in the region.
The .9999 fineness puts this above the standard .999 threshold used by most European bullion programs.
