Interesting fact

The Marmota marmota (Świstak) coin is a circulating commemorative coin from Poland that features an image of a marmot, a small mammal native to the Tatra Mountains. The coin was issued in 2006 and is made of Nordic gold, which is a unique alloy of gold, silver, and copper that gives it a distinctive color and durability. The coin weighs 8.15 grams and has a diameter of 27.5 millimeters. It's an interesting fact that the coin's design, which features a marmot sitting on a rocky outcrop, was created by a Polish artist named Ewa Tyc-Karpowicz. The coin was issued to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Polish Marmot Conservation Program, which aims to protect and conserve marmot populations in the Tatra Mountains.
