The koruna is issued and regulated by the Czech National Bank, which has the authority to mint and distribute coins as well as print and circulate banknotes. The coins of various denominations include 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, and 50 koruny, while the banknotes come in values of 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, and 5000 koruny.

The word "koruny" is derived from the Czech language. It is the plural form of the noun "koruna", which means "crown" in English. The term "koruna" itself comes from the Latin word "corona", meaning "crown" or "wreath". The Czech currency is named "koruna" because the currency's notes and coins historically depicted the country's national symbol, the Bohemian lion, with a crown on its head.
