Czech Republic Coins
The Czech Republic has a rich numismatic history dating back centuries. Currently, the country's official currency is the Czech koruna (CZK), which is divided into 100 hellers. The Czech monetary system has undergone several changes over time, reflecting the political and economic evolution of the region.
Current currency in circulation
The Czech koruna was introduced in 1993, following the dissolution of Czechoslovakia. Coins in circulation include denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 crowns. Each coin features unique designs that reflect Czech culture and history, such as the two-tailed Bohemian lion and important historical figures. The Czech National Bank is responsible for issuing and regulating the currency, maintaining its stability and value on the international market.
Monetary history and relevant facts
Before the Czech koruna, the region used various currencies, including the Bohemian groschen in the Middle Ages and the Austro-Hungarian koruna until 1918. An important milestone in Czech numismatics was the introduction of the Czechoslovak koruna in 1919, which served as the national currency until the partition of the country. The Czech Republic has also issued numerous commemorative coins over the years, celebrating historical events, personalities and cultural achievements, which has contributed to its rich numismatic tradition.
