I've been adding some Czech commemoratives to my collection and came across this great piece .
Czechoslovakia Shall Be Free Again (soldier tied to two columns with snakes twined around and topped by German helmets, swastikas on each column, woman-child-baby by his side, Czech scenes in background) // Republika Ceskoslovenska, March 15, 1939 (Arms of Czechoslovakia ). Lightly gilted bronze, high relief, 1 ½” diameter, uncirculated, signed Medallic Art Co. on the edge, issued at the 1939 New York Worlds Fair to raise money for and bring attention to the occupation of Czechoslovakia by the Germans.
My other Czech stuff is here
