Interesting fact

The Pattern 2 Zlotys coin was designed by Polish artist and sculptor, Antoni Madeyski, and features a portrait of King Władysław I Łokietek on the obverse side, while the reverse side depicts the Polish coat of arms. It's worth noting that the coin was minted as a trial strike and was not released into circulation, making it a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists. Additionally, the coin's silver content and unique design make it a standout piece in the world of coin collecting.
