Interesting fact

The Pattern 2 Zlotys coin was designed by Polish artist and engraver, Czesław Słania, who is known for his work on various coins and banknotes. The coin features an image of the Polish coat of arms on one side and the value of the coin on the other. The Pattern 2 Zlotys coin was minted in 1989 as a trial strike, which means it was not intended for circulation and was only produced in small quantities for testing purposes. As a result, it is considered a rare and collectible item among numismatists.
