Slovak National Uprising is the name for a military uprising organized by the Slovak resistance during the Second World War. The two-month uprising against the German military occupation and the Nazi-aligned Slovak state ended in failure on October 27, 1944; however, it ultimately placed Slovakia on the side of victors. The Slovak state was an ally of the Third Reich, headed by Catholic priest and President Jozef Tiso. The obverse depicts the building of the Slovak National Uprising Museum in Banská Bystrica. Below it is an outline map of the wartime Slovak Republic, showing the territory in which the uprising took place, a central point marking the location of Banská Bystrica (the heart of the uprising), and arrows indicating the direction from which German forces came to suppress the uprising. The Slovak coat of arms appears in the lower left of the design. At the centre of the reverse design is the emblem of the insurgent air force, with an LT vz. 38 tank shown on the right side and an image of mortarmen in combat action appearing on the left side. Depicted at the bottom of design is an insurgent biplane fighter (Avia B.534.217) and, above it, part of an insurgent armoured train. The proof coin comes delivered in a coin case, and includes a certificate of authenticity and an official informational leaflet.
