Interesting fact

The Pattern 5 Zlotys coin from Poland, minted in 1958, features a unique design element - a freighter ship called the Waryński, which is depicted sailing through clouds. This design was created by the Polish artist, Andrzej Młynarczyk, and it's a notable departure from the more traditional designs found on coins from this era. The use of clouds in the design adds a sense of movement and dynamism to the coin, and it's a fascinating example of how art and design can be used to create unique and memorable currency.
