Interesting fact
The 5 Zlotys coin featuring Józef Piłsudski, which was minted between 1934 and 1938, was the first coin in Poland to feature a historical figure rather than a member of the royal family or a religious symbol. This was a departure from the traditional coinage design in Poland and signified a shift towards a more secular and nationalist approach to currency design.
