Czechoslovakia 100 korun Painter Jan Kupecky Art PR67 PCGS silver coin 1990

The 1990 Czechoslovakia 100 korun silver proof coin commemorates the renowned Baroque portrait painter Jan Kupecký, one of the most significant artists connected with Central European art of the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Kupecký became famous for his expressive portrait paintings of aristocrats, intellectuals, and cultural figures. His works are admired for their realism, strong psychological character, and refined Baroque composition, securing his reputation as an important master of European portrait art.

The reverse features a finely sculpted portrait of Jan Kupecký depicted in historical clothing typical of the Baroque period. The artist is shown holding a painter’s palette and brushes, clear symbols of his profession and artistic legacy. Detailed folds of his garment and the carefully modeled face emphasize the artistic character of the design. The inscription “Jan Kupecký” appears beside the portrait in stylized script, while the dates “1740–1990” mark the commemorative theme shown on the coin. The obverse displays the emblem of the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic with the heraldic lion inside a shield topped by a star, surrounded by the inscription “ČESKOSLOVENSKÁ SOCIALISTICKÁ REPUBLIKA” and the denomination “100 Kčs.”

Struck in silver in proof quality and certified by PCGS as PR67 DCAM, this coin features strong cameo contrast and excellent detail. It is an appealing collectible for enthusiasts of European painting, Baroque portraiture, and Czechoslovak commemorative coinage.
