Obverse: Portrait of Mojmír I, Prince of Great Moravia.
Reverse: Coat of arms of Slovakia.
Mojmír I was the first known prince of the Моravian principality (830-833) after the fall of Samo's Moravian empire and the first prince of Great Moravia (833-846). He is also the first known member of the Mojmirid dynasty, which was named after him.
He appears in Frankish sources in 830 as a ruler of the Moravian principality, a Slavic state situated in present day Czech republic, Slovakia, Carpathian Rus, Hungary, Slovenia and northern Croatia. Mojmír I supported Christian missionaries coming from Passau and perhaps also accepted Frankish formal sovereignty. In 833, he joined the Moravian and Nitrian Principalities (originally ruled by prince Pribina) and formed the Moravian empire. Uniting both states, he founded the state known as Great Moravia. Mojmír I was succeeded by his nephew Rostislav in 846.
