Interesting fact

The Pattern 5 Fenigów was designed by Polish artist and sculptor, Antoni Madeyski, and was minted in 1918 as a pattern coin, meaning it was not intended for circulation but rather as a trial or sample coin. Despite its small weight, the coin is highly sought after by collectors due to its rarity and historical significance, making it a valuable addition to any numismatic collection.
