    I recently ordered these three 200 crown silver proofs from the Czech mint and they arrived in the mail today. The coins are just absolutely beautiful and very well designed.

    All three coins are commemoratives. The first coin marks the 150th anniversary of the birth of Alfons Mucha, Czech's most influential art noveau painter and only has a production of 15,900 pieces. The second coin marks the 100th anniversary of the death of Josef Hlavka, a renowned architect and only has a production of 16,000. The third coin celebrates the 400th anniversary of the formation of Keplar's laws of planetary motion and has a production of 20,700 pieces. All three coins are 900 parts silver and 100 parts copper, have a diameter of 31mm and are completely awesome!

    By the way, Mucha is also known as a designer of banknotes, e.g. the 10 korun note from 1927, and postal stamps (Image: Numismondo). As for Kepler, Germany and San Marino also issued collector coins in that year (Images: Honscha). Could be interesting for those who are into thematic collections.
