Czechoslovakia 100 korun Paradubicka Steeplechase MS67 PCGS silver coin 1990

The 1990 Czechoslovakia 100 korun silver coin commemorates the famous Velká Pardubická steeplechase, one of the most challenging and prestigious horse races in Europe. First held in 1874 in the city of Pardubice, the race quickly became a legendary sporting event known for its demanding obstacles, long course, and dramatic competition between horse and rider. The Velká Pardubická remains an important part of Czech sporting tradition and equestrian culture.

The reverse of the coin presents a dynamic scene of a steeplechase horse and jockey captured mid-jump as they clear an obstacle. The powerful horse is shown stretching forward in motion while the rider leans low over the saddle, emphasizing speed, control, and athletic precision. Beneath the figure appears the inscription “1990 100. VELKÁ PARDUBICKÁ,” marking the 100th running of the race. The design captures the energy and intensity of the famous event. The obverse displays the coat of arms of the Czech and Slovak Federative Republic divided into four heraldic fields featuring lions and double crosses on mountains, alongside the denomination “100 Kčs” and the inscription “ČESKÁ A SLOVENSKÁ FEDERATIVNÍ REPUBLIKA.”

Struck in silver and certified by PCGS as MS67 Mint State, this coin is part of the commemorative series celebrating important national events and traditions. Its vivid sporting theme and elegant engraving make it an appealing piece for collectors of equestrian history, sports memorabilia, and world numismatics.
