Interesting fact
The Pattern 2000 Zlotys (Fryderyk Chopin; Trial Strike) 1977 from Poland made of Silver (.625) is a rare and valuable coin among collectors due to its unique design and limited mintage. The coin features a portrait of Fryderyk Chopin, a renowned Polish composer and pianist, on one side, and the Polish coat of arms on the other. It was minted in 1977 as a trial strike, which means that it was not officially released into circulation and was instead kept as a sample or proof coin. As a result, the mintage of this coin is extremely low, making it a highly sought-after collector's item.
