103228 | CZECHOSLOVAKIA. "Temptation" zinc-plated aluminum Plaque Restrike.

103228  |  CZECHOSLOVAKIA. "Temptation" uniface zinc-plated aluminum Plaque Restrike Trial. Issued ca. 1975 (59mm x 55mm, 29.88 g). After Jan Čejka at the Kremnica mint.

 

Nude female standing facing, head turned over her left shoulder and attempting to cover herself with a drapery; behind to right, portly man reclining on bed, resting hand upon bag of coins, while other bags of coins spill out, along with pieces of jewelry // Plain. Edge: Plain.

 

Essentially as Made. Satiny gray surfaces, though some issues with the zinc are noted on the women's head. An interesting and rather provocative type.

 

Quite unusual and thought-provoking, this issue seems to embody the aspect of temptation, with the nude female deliberating what can only be interpreted as a would-be prostitution scene. She is contemplating the act, with a rather rotund man tempting her with rewards in the form of many coins and even jewelry should she join him in bed in order to earn her compensation.
