Following the constitutional changes of 1960, Czechoslovakia updated its coinage to reflect the nation's new socialist identity. This batch, covering the low denomination issues from 1962 to 1972, is easily identified by the revised state emblem: the traditional Bohemian lion is now placed within a late-Gothic shield (pavise) and crowned with a five-pointed socialist star. The reverse designs largely retain the large denominations introduced in the 1950s, primarily minted in lightweight aluminum and brass. This collection serves as a definitive record of the visual and political transition into the peak years of the ČSSR.
