The Slovak Republic has 5.4 million inhabitants, its area is 49 thousand square km, its capital city is Bratislava, its monetary unit is the Slovak crown (Sk). Obverse: The coat of arms of the Slovak Republic is placed in the centre of the upper half of the coin. The inscription "SLOVENSKA REPUBLIKA", the nominal value and year of issue are placed in lines below the coat of arms. Reverse: A map of the Slovak Republic is given in the centre of the coin. A patriarchal cross on three hills is placed on it. The date of origin of the Slovak Republic (1.1.1993) is given above it. Three flying Tatran eagles, each bearing a lime twig in its beak are the symbol of freedom and independence.
