Interesting fact

This coin was designed by Polish artist and engraver, Cyprian Godebski, and features an image of the Polish coat of arms on one side and the value "20 Złotych" on the other. The coin was minted in 1973 as a trial strike, which means it was not intended for circulation and was instead used as a test piece for the minting process. As a result, only a small number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors.
