Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1831 Polish 2 Zlotys coin is that it was minted during a time of great political turmoil in Poland. The country was under the control of the Russian Empire, and the coin was minted in the Russian style, with the Polish coat of arms on one side and the Russian imperial eagle on the other. Despite this, the coin still maintained some Polish national symbols, such as the crowned eagle and the motto "Polonia Restituta" (Restored Poland), indicating a desire for independence and national identity.
