Interesting fact
The Pattern 2 Grosze coin was designed by Polish artist and sculptor, Antoni Madeyski, and it features an image of a crowned eagle on the obverse side, while the reverse side bears the denomination and the year of issue. What makes this coin particularly interesting is that it was minted as a trial strike in silver, which means that it was not intended for circulation and was instead used as a test piece to evaluate the quality of the dies and the striking process. As a result, only a small number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors.
