Commemorative coin 20th anniversary of November 17, 1989 (Day of the struggle for freedom and democracy)
Description of the coin
The coin shows a bell with a bunch of keys instead of a heart. It recalls the demonstration of November 17, 1989, when demonstrators rang keys to signal the door to be unlocked. This event was the beginning of the "gentle revolution" in what was then Czechoslovakia. Under the bell is the mark of the author of the design and the mark of the Slovak Mint Kremnica. Around the bell is the inscription "17. NOVEMBER FREEDOM DEMOCRACY", the year "1989-2009" and the name of the issuing country "SLOVAKIA".
In the outer ring of the coin there are twelve stars of the European Union.
