Comment
Date of issue 31-08-1979Interesting fact
The 2000 Zlotys (Marie Skłodowska-Curie) 1979 coin from Poland is made of gold (.900) and weighs 8 grams. It's a non-circulating coin, meaning it's not meant to be used as regular currency, but rather as a collector's item or a symbol of value. The coin features an image of Marie Skłodowska-Curie, a Polish-born physicist and chemist who was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, on one side, and the Polish coat of arms on the other. The coin was issued in 1979 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Marie Skłodowska-Curie's birth.
