Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 20 Groszy coin from Poland, minted during the German occupation of World War II, is that it was made of zinc, a material that was commonly used for coins during this time period due to its durability and resistance to corrosion. Despite being made of a base metal, the coin still maintained a relatively high level of detail and design, featuring an image of a crowned eagle on one side and the denomination and date on the other. This coin is a unique piece of history that serves as a reminder of the tumultuous period of war and occupation that Poland experienced during World War II.
