Interesting fact

The Pattern 200 Zlotys coin was designed to commemorate Poland's participation in the 1986 FIFA World Cup, which was held in Mexico. The coin features an image of a soccer player in action on one side, and the Polish coat of arms on the other. It was minted as a trial strike, which means that it was not intended for circulation and was instead produced as a sample or a proof coin. As a result, the mintage of this coin is quite low, making it a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists and soccer fans alike.
