Interesting fact

The Pattern 2 Zlotys coin was designed by Polish artist and engraver, Cyprian Godebski, and features an image of the Polish coat of arms on one side and the value "2 Złote" on the other. The coin was minted in 1979 as a trial strike, which means it was not intended for circulation and was instead produced as a test run to evaluate the quality of the coin's design and production process. As a result, only a limited number of these coins were minted, making them relatively rare and sought after by collectors.
