 Human body:

Come find out with us! Peek inside nature's masterpiece, which hides dozens of organs, hundreds of bones, and thousands of kilometers of blood vessels, and get to know yourself...

The First Coin in the series is dedicated to the Muscular System:

The first coin from the new collector's series of the Czech Mint is dedicated to the muscular system - specifically the muscles of the head. 

Muscles have the ability to contract and are responsible for walking, movements of the digestive tract and the heartbeat. 

The human body contains over 600 of them. There are 43 muscles in the face, but their number varies from person to person and many of them are missing in some people. Facial expressions are one of the most important means of non-verbal communication. 

A person can express 21 different emotions with the help of the face each using a different combination of facial muscles.

The musculoskeletal system enables the organism to move actively in the surrounding environment. 

Its subsystem is the muscular system, which ensures the controlled production of mechanical energy

Some muscles can be controlled by will, others do their work automatically. 

Muscles have the ability to contract and are responsible for walking, digestive tract movements and heartbeat. 

The Silver  Coin:

The Reverse side of the $1 (One Dollar) Silver Coin, which is the work of medal maker Jan Štekel, DiS., bears a cross-section of a human face. 

The exposed skin gives prominence to the intertwining muscles, which are coloured for a contrasting effect. 

The composition is supplemented with the Latin inscription "MUSCULI CAPITIS" ("Head Muscles"). 

On the Obverse side of the $1 (One Dollar) Silver Coin, which is common to the whole cycle, you will find a double helix of DNA. 

As the coins of the Czech Mint are issued with the foreign licence of the island of Niue, the obverse side bears its "national emblem", the nominal value of "1 DOLLAR (NZD)" and the year of issue "2025".

 A Collector's Book:

All twelve anatomical coins from the Human Body series can be saved in a collector's book, which one can also find in the Czech Mint's offer.
