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. This particular coin features an image of the Polish coat of arms on one side and the value of the coin on the other. It's interesting to note that the coin was minted as a trial strike, which means it was not intended for circulation and was instead used as a test run to ensure the quality of the minting process. As a result, the coin is relatively rare and highly sought after by collectors.
