Description:
Obverse
The obverse side of the coin is dominated by the coat of arms of the Slovak Republic at its centre against a background of dynamic centripetal lines representing the position and importance of the Slovak Republic during its presidency of the Council of the European Union. To the right of the coat of arms is the year “2016”. Around the edge is the country name “SLOVENSKÁ REPUBLIKA” (Slovak Republic), which is separated by graphical symbols from the denomination of the coin “10 EURO”. The mintmark of the Kremnica Mint, “MK”, and the stylized initials of the coin’s designer, Vladimír Pavlica, “VP”, are placed in the lower part of the composition.
Reverse
The reverse side of the coin features an impression of the Bratislava castle with waves symbolising the river Danube against a background of dynamic centripetal lines. In a circle around the edge of the coin, the inscription “PREDSEDNÍCTVO” (Presidency) is separated by graphical symbols from the inscription “SR V RADE EÚ” (of Slovakia of the Council of the EU).
