Book<\/h2>\n

The historian Pavel \u010cern\u00fd describes the dramatic events preceding the 28th<\/sup> of October 1918 in a stirring manner. Days when the Czechoslovakian statehood was born minute by minute. The effort of Czech and Slovak people to self-determination within the Austrian monarchy and later to create an independent state, took decades. But this day changed everything literally. And five men revolved around history.<\/span><\/p>\n

Apart from describing the events on the key day in our history, the book also includes portraits of the main participants. You will find a set of period photographs and documents here, too.<\/span><\/p>\n

Medals<\/h2>\n

The collection includes five massive medals with portraits of the key participants on the 28th<\/sup> of October. The medal is a coin type with very high relief, with plasticity that was common 100 years ago. Every medal has its certificate, went through a thorough check and bears the assay of the Assay Office. The medals are minted of pure material, with a purity of 999\/1000 and a weight of 1 troy ounce (1oz = 31.1035 g). The material is refined, cleaned and reworked in the Czech refinery, especially from old jewelry and coins of that time. The medals have got a manually minted registry number.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201eThe question of Czechoslovak mutuality is the question of the cultural unity of the Czech-Slovak nation. And since we understand all the psychic and material state of whichever nation under the term culture, therefore the Czechoslovak mutuality is an extremely complicated question concerning the whole life of the nation.<\/span><\/i>\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n

Stamps<\/h2>\n

The set of post stamps completes the collection of medals, that already has the ambition of becoming the collector\u2019s item.

The book is printed on hand paper with watermarks.
