Interesting fact
The Pattern 2000 Zlotys (Fryderyk Chopin; Trial Strike) 1977 from Poland is a rare and unique coin, with only 300 pieces minted. It features a portrait of Fryderyk Chopin, a renowned Polish composer and pianist, on one side, and the Polish coat of arms on the other. The coin was minted as a trial strike, which means it was not intended for circulation and was instead produced as a test run to evaluate the quality of the minting process. As a result, it is considered a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists and music enthusiasts.
