Interesting fact

This coin was designed by Polish artist and sculptor, Xawery Dunikowski, who was known for his unique style that combined traditional techniques with modernist elements. The obverse of the coin features a portrait of a young woman, symbolizing the spirit of Nowa Huta, a new town built near Krakow in the 1950s. The reverse features the coat of arms of Poland and the denomination. The coin was minted as a trial strike in 1964, but it was never officially released into circulation, making it a rare and valuable collector's item.
