Comment
Date of issue 28-05-2008Interesting fact
The 2 Zlotys (Zbigniew Herbert) 2008 coin from Poland is made of Nordic gold, which is a unique alloy that is resistant to corrosion and has a long lifespan. Nordic gold is not a specific type of gold, but rather a proprietary alloy developed by the Swedish company, Myntverket. It is composed of 89% copper, 5.5% aluminum, 5.5% zinc, and 0.5% tin. The use of Nordic gold in the production of coins aims to reduce the risk of nickel allergies and skin irritation, making it a safer and more durable option for coin collectors and users.
