Comments

Different mintmarks (crowned "b" or "CM" monogram = Bizuterie Jablonec Czech Mint, Maple Leaf = Royal Canadian Mint).

Two main groups of coinage are known:

Obverse
Die 1 - thick script, left legs of letters A thinner than the right ones.
Die 2 - thin script, both legs of letters A of the same thickness.

Reverse
Die A - pointed numeral "5", bridge narrow, thick script.
Die B - pointed numeral "5", bridge wide, thin script.
Die C - blunt numeral "5", bridge wide, thin script.

Combinations
1+A: 1993-1997.
2+B: 1998-2019.
2+C: 2017 See main photo of this article.

Notes.
1. Two varieties of Obverse are known in 1995. They differ by mintmark and style of date:

Both varieties have the same Reverse die A.

2. 2007 Issue is claimed by Czech National Bank (ČNB) as a purely set issue, however, these coins are found in general circulation, but they are difficult to find.

Values in the table above are expressed in USD. They are based on evaluations by Numista users and sales realized on Internet platforms. They serve as a measure, but they are not intended to be relied upon for buying, selling or exchanging. Numista does not buy or sell coins or banknotes.

Frequencies show the percentage of Numista users who own each year or variety among all the users who own this coin. Since some users own several versions, the sum may be greater than 100%.
