Detailed description
Rare Gold Coin Banská Štiavnica Proof
The gold commemorative coin issued by the National Bank of Slovakia in 1997 and minted by the Kremnica Mint weighing 9.5 g in 90% gold and 10% silver in top proof quality is dedicated to the historic Slovak town of Banská Štiavnica.
These gold coins are rarely found and are therefore highly sought after by collectors and investors. The coin comes in a red leatherette box with a certificate of authenticity from the NBS in a limited edition of only 8000 pieces!
Banská Štiavnica, the oldest mining town in Slovakia, had a dominant position in Europe as early as the beginning of the 13th century. A charter issued as early as 1275 preserves the oldest known town seal from medieval Hungary. From the 13th to the 19th century the town was one of the most important centres of gold and silver mining and at the same time the most important centre of mining science, technology and education.
In the 18th century, the most sophisticated mining water management system in the world was completed in the town and its surroundings, with progressive mining, water treatment and pumping technology. The Mining Academy (1762-1919), which was established here by the Empress Maria Theresa as the first of its kind in the world, achieved world importance.
In 1950 it was declared an urban conservation area for its unique architectural monuments. Banská Štiavnica and the technical monuments of its surroundings were inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in December 1993.
