Description

2 Euro Commemorative Coin Slovakia 2009 20th Anniversary of the Velvet Revolution, 17 November 1989 (Day of the fight for freedom and democracy) The events of 17 November 1989 set in motion the protests that led to the end of communist rule in Czechoslovakia. The jingling of keys became a defining image of this peaceful mobilisation, suggesting both a new beginning and doors being opened. Issued twenty years later, Slovakia’s coin recalls that path toward freedom and democracy. Its bell, with a clapper formed from a bunch of keys, turns the memory of the Velvet Revolution into a concise visual symbol.
