For a very short time in 1939 and 1993 it was also the currency in both of separate [[Czech Republic|Czech]] and [[Slovakia|Slovak]] republics. On [[February 8]], [[1993]] it was replaced by the [[Czech koruna]] and the [[Slovak koruna]], both at par. The (last) [[ISO 4217]] code and the local acronyms for the koruna were ''CSK'' and ''Kčs''. One koruna equalled 100 ''haléřů'' (Czech, [[Grammatical number|singular]]: ''haléř'') or ''halierov'' (Slovak, singular: ''halier''). In both languages, the abbreviation ''h'' was used. The acronym was placed behind the numeric value. ==First koruna== A currency called the ''[[Austro-Hungarian krone|krone]]'' in [[German language|German]] was introduced in [[Austria-Hungary]] on [[11 September]], [[1892]], as the first modern gold-based currency in the area. After the creation of an independent [[Czechoslovakia]] in [[1918]], an urgent need emerged for the establishment of a new currency system that would distinguish itself from the currencies of the other newly born countries suffering from inflation. The next year, on [[10 April]], [[1919]], a currency reform took place, defining the new ''koruna'' as equal in value to the Austro-Hungarian krone. The first banknotes came into circulation the same year, the coins three years later, in [[1922]]. This first koruna circulated until 1939, when separate currencies for [[Bohemia and Moravia]] and [[Slovakia]] were introduced, at par with the Czechoslovak koruna. These were the [[Bohemia and Moravia koruna]] and the [[Slovak koruna]]. ===Coins=== In 1921, coins were introduced in denominations of 20 and 50h, followed by 10h and 1 koruna in 1922, 2 and 5h in 1923, 5 korun in 1925, 10 korun in 1930, and 25h and 20 korun in 1933. The 2h was struck in zinc, the 5 and 10h in bronze, and the 20, 25 and 50h and 1 koruna in [[cupro-nickel]]. The 5 koruna was struck in cupro-nickel until 1928, when a silver version was introduced. This denomination reverted to cupro-nickel in 1938. The 10 and 20 korun were issued in silver. ===Banknotes=== The first banknotes were issues of the Austro-Hungarian Bank to which adhesive stamps were affixed. Denominations were of 10, 20, 50, 100 and 1000 korun. Regular banknotes were issued by the Republic of Czechoslovakia between 1919 and 1926, in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 500, 1000 and 5000 korun. The Czechoslovak National Bank took over production in 1926, issuing notes for 10, 20, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 korun. The new designs were made by [[Alfons Mucha]], one of the founders of [[Art Nouveau]] and a [[Slavic nationalist]]. The urgency of the task led him to reuse a previous portrait of [[Josephine Crane Bradley]] as [[Slavia]] for the 100 koruna bill<ref name="Johnston">''[http://www.mala.bc.ca/~Johnstoi/praguepage/muchalecture.htm An Introduction to the Work of Alphonse Mucha and Art Nouveau]'', lecture by [[Ian Johnston]] of [[Malaspina University-College]], [[Nanaimo]], BC.

As a consequence of the war, the currency had lost much of its value. ===Coins=== Between 1946 and 1948, 20 and 50h and 1 and 2 koruny coins were introduced. The lower two denominations were struck in bronze, the higher two in cupro-nickel. The designs of all but the 2 koruny were based on those of the interwar coins but the coins were smaller. In 1950, aluminium 1 korun coins were introduced, followed by aluminium 20 and 50h in 1951. 5 korun coins were minted but not introduced. {{-}} {|class="wikitable" style="font-size: 90%" !colspan=12|1946-1953 Issues |- !rowspan=2| Value !!colspan=3| Technical parameters !!colspan=3| Description !!colspan=3| Date of |- !

The first were issues of Bohemia and Moravia and Slovakia, to which adhesive stamps were affixed. Denominations issued were 100, 500 and 1000 korun. The second (dated 1944) were printed in the [[Soviet Union]] and were issued in denominations of 1, 5, 20, 100, 500 and 1000 korun. The third were locally printed notes issued by the government in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 500, 1000 and 2000 korun. The fourth were issues of the Czechoslovak National Bank, in denominations of 1000 and 5000 korun. The National Bank issued 500 korun notes from 1946, whilst the government continued to issue notes between 5 and 100 korun, the 1 korun note being replaced by a coin in 1946. ==Third koruna== The koruna went through a number of further reforms. A particularly drastic one was undertaken in [[1953]]. At that time, the [[Communist Party of Czechoslovakia]] had to deal with the fact that there was a double market in the country: a fixed market ensuring basic food availability - a remnant of the post war quota system, and a free market, in which goods were as much as eight times more expensive but of a higher quality. They decided to declare a currency reform valid from [[1 June]], [[1953]], and to distribute new banknotes printed in the [[Soviet Union|USSR]]. The reform had been prepared very quickly and was confidential up to the last minute, but some information leaked anyway, causing a lot of panic among people. The night before the deadline, the president of Czechoslovakia [[Antonín Zápotocký]] made a radio speech, in which he strictly denied any possibility of a reform and quieted down the inhabitants, though he had to know that he was lying to the nation. The next day, people (that were lucky enough not to fit into the category of "capitalistic elements", a pejorative category to which the intelligence agency used to blacklist certain individuals) were allowed to change up to 1500 old korun for new korun at the rate of 5 old to 1 new koruna and the rest at the rate of 50 to 1. All insurance stock, state obligations and other commercial papers were nullified. The economic situation of many people got worse insofar as many petitions and demonstrations broke out, the largest of which took place in [[Plzeň]], where 472 people were arrested. In [[1993]], in accordance with the dissolution of the Czechoslovak federation, the Czechoslovak koruna split into two independent currencies - the [[Slovak koruna]] and the [[Czech koruna]]. Both currencies will be replaced by the [[Euro]] as quickly as their respective countries can meet the criteria for economic convergence with the rest of the [[European Union]]. ===Coins=== After the 1953 currency reform a new series of coins were introduced. Coins were first issued in denominations of 1, 3, 5, 10, 25 h - the 1, 3 and 5 Kčs denominations only existed as paper money (state notes). The haler coins dated 1953 were all minted in [[Leningrad]]. The 1, 3 and 5 Kčs state notes were replaced by coins in 1957, 1965 and 1966, respectively. The 50 h coin appeared in 1963. In 1972 the 25 h and 3 Kčs coins were withdrawn, and - form 1972 - 20 h (as part of the new series) and 2 Kčs coins were introduced instead. The 3 h coin was withdrawn in 1976. A redesigned series of haler coins was released into circulation during the 1970s. Until 1960 the "Republika Československá" inscription was used with the republic Coat of arms on the coins. The strikes from 1961 onwards bore the new socialist-style coat of arms along with the inscription: "Československá Socialistická Republika". 3 and 5 korun coins were introduced in 1965 and 1966, respectively, with 20h and 2 koruny coins added in 1972. 10 korun coins were introduced in 1990. {{-}} {|class="wikitable" style="font-size: 90%" !colspan=12|1953-1990 Issues |- !rowspan=2| Value !!colspan=3| Technical parameters !!colspan=3| Description !!colspan=3| Date of |- !

From 1958, new 25, 10, 100 and finally 50 Kčs banknotes were designed, and the state notes were gradually replaced by coins during the 1960s. The 20 Kčs banknote was printed from 1970 to replace the 25 Kčs note. The 500 Kčs banknote appeared in 1973. Starting with the 1000 Kčs banknote in 1985, a new, more uniform series (designer: [[Albín Brunovský]]) was issued adding a new denomination each year. This process was interrupted by the fall of the communism (and finally by the dissolution of the country): the new 100 Kčs note issued in 1989 depicted [[Klement Gottwald]], a prominent communist and was speedily withdrawn after the [[Velvet Revolution]]. A new 500 Kčs banknote was never issued. {|class="wikitable" style="font-size: 90%" !colspan=11|1958 Series |- !rowspan=2| Value !!rowspan=2| Dimensions !!rowspan=2| Main Colour !!rowspan=2| Language !!colspan=2| Description !!colspan=3| Date of |- !Obverse !!
