Interesting fact
The Pattern 10 Zlotys coin featuring Jan III Sobieski was designed by Polish artist and sculptor, Antoni Madeyski. Madeyski was a prominent artist in Poland during the early 20th century and was known for his work on various coins, medals, and monuments. His design for the Pattern 10 Zlotys coin was chosen as the winner of a competition held by the Polish Ministry of Finance in 1932. The coin's design features a portrait of Jan III Sobieski, a Polish king and military leader, on the obverse, and the Polish coat of arms on the reverse. The coin was minted in 1933 as a trial strike, but it was never officially released into circulation. Today, the Pattern 10 Zlotys coin is considered a rare and valuable collector's item.
