Interesting fact

The Pattern 5 Zlotys coin was designed by Polish artist and sculptor, Antoni Madeyski, and it features an image of a crowned eagle on the obverse side, which symbolizes the Polish state. The reverse side of the coin depicts 81 beads, which represent the 81 articles of the March Constitution of Poland, also known as the "Small Constitution," that was adopted in 1922. The coin was minted in 1925 as a trial strike, and it is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
