  • Coin description

    The design depicts a footballer in right profile dribbling the ball. He is flanked by two laurel branches. The curved inscription ‘MAJSTRI EURÓPY 1976’ runs from between the player’s feet up the inside of the right branch. On either side of the stem of the left branch are the initials ‘MH’ of the designer, Matěj Hanuš, and the mint mark of Slovakia’s Kremnica Mint (the letters ‘MK’ between two dies). At the bottom, separated by a line from the central motif, is the name of the issuing country ‘SLOVENSKO’ and the year of issuance ‘2026’. The coin’s outer ring bears the 12 stars of the European flag.
