Interesting fact

The Pattern 10 Zlotys coin was designed by Polish artist and engraver, Andrzej Nowakowski. The obverse of the coin features an image of the Polish coat of arms, while the reverse features a stylized image of the provinces of Poland that were annexed by neighboring countries during World War II. The coin was minted in 1970 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Provincial Annexations Trial Strike, which was a series of trials held in Poland in 1946 to prosecute those responsible for the annexations. The coin's design and symbolism serve as a reminder of Poland's complex history and its efforts to preserve its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
