| Reverse description | The central vignette comprises two hands reaching toward each other in an intaglio engraving — an allusion to Komenský's pedagogical philosophy — set against a radiating orange and brown guilloche underprint with the watermark text "ORBIS PICTUS" visible as an underprint reference. The Czech national coat of arms appears at upper right, with an open book rendered in teal colour at lower right. The large denominational numeral "200" is repeated at upper right in brown letterpress, with Omron rings distributed across the right margin. |
