This specimen was lot 30129 in Stack's Bowers ANA sale (Chicago, August 2022), where it sold for $5,040. The catalog description[1] noted, "CZECH REPUBLIC. 10000 Korun, 2015. Jablonec nad Nisou (Czech) Mint. NGC PROOF-70 Ultra Cameo. Mintage: Commemorating the 600th Anniversary of the martyrdom of Jan Hus. A flawless modern proof honoring one of the national heroes of the Czech Republic, this beautiful piece is mostly rich with frosting, with just a touch of mirrored fields in an artfully minimal display. A handsome modern commemorative, and one that is rather elusive on account of its low mintage. From the Augustana Collection." The Czechs obtained their divorce from the Slovaks in 1993. This NCLT commemorates the 600th Anniversary of the martyrdom of Jan Hus, a religious reformer considered a forerunner of Martin Luther.

Recorded mintage: 6,300.

Specification: 31.105 g, 0.999 fine gold.

Catalog reference: Fr-39; KM-Unlisted.
