Czechoslovakia 50 korun 3d Anniversary of Slovak Uprising MS64 PCGS Ag coin 1947

The 1947 Czechoslovakia 50 korun silver coin commemorates the 3rd anniversary of the Slovak National Uprising, one of the most significant resistance movements against Nazi occupation during World War II. Issued shortly after the war, this historic commemorative reflects the spirit of resistance, unity, and national pride that defined the uprising of 1944. Struck in silver and certified PCGS MS64, the coin represents an important post-war numismatic tribute to courage and liberation in Central Europe.

The reverse features a powerful allegorical composition with a standing female figure in traditional Slovak attire, wearing a headscarf and long dress with a tied ribbon at the collar. She holds a branch with leaves and berries, symbolizing victory, renewal, and hope after the conflict. To her left appears the large denomination 50, while along the right rim runs the inscription “1944 – 29.8 – 1947,” marking the date of the Slovak National Uprising. Fine details of the drapery, folds of the clothing, and the delicate botanical branch emphasize the artistic craftsmanship of the design.

The obverse displays the inscription ČESKOSLOVENSKÁ REPUBLIKA surrounding a rampant heraldic lion bearing a shield with the Slovak double cross, symbolizing the unity of the Czechs and Slovaks. The lion’s flowing tail, claws, and mane are rendered with expressive relief, creating a dynamic national emblem.

Rich in symbolism and historical meaning, this silver commemorative coin is a compelling collectible for those interested in World War II history, European resistance movements, and classic Czechoslovak coinage.
