A total of seven designs by seven different authors were submitted to the public anonymous competition for the artistic design of the silver collector’s euro coin with a nominal value of 20 euros, themed "Heritage Reserve Kežmarok," announced by the National Bank of Slovakia in June 2024. The designs were evaluated by a professional committee in September 2024. As an expert consultant in the evaluation, Ing. arch. Ľubica Pinčíková, a former employee of the Monuments Board of the Slovak Republic, who is now retired, participated. The first prize and the right to realization were awarded to Karol Ličko.
