| Additional information |
Slovakia's wartime government, operating as a nominally independent client state under German oversight, was actively retooling its coinage in zinc by 1944 as copper and nickel allocations were consumed by German war production. This piece is a trial strike — produced to test die alignment, metal flow, and planchet specification before authorizing a full production run. Whether that run ever materialized in quantity is uncertain; by late 1944, the Slovak National Uprising had shattered internal stability, and the regime's administrative capacity collapsed well before the war's end in May 1945.
