Interesting fact
The 2 Zlotys (Żagań) 2006 coin from Poland is made of Nordic gold, which is a unique alloy that is resistant to corrosion and has a distinctive color. Nordic gold is not actually a specific type of gold, but rather a blend of gold, silver, and copper that is used to create a gold-colored alloy with a slightly silverish tint. This alloy is often used in the production of commemorative coins, like the 2 Zlotys (Żagań) 2006 coin, because of its durability and distinctive appearance.
