Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 5 Zlotys Polskich coin from the Russian Partition of Poland is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in Poland. The coin was issued during the reign of Alexander I, who was the Emperor of Russia from 1801 to 1825, and King of Poland from 1815 to 1825. This period saw the Congress Poland, a client state of the Russian Empire, established in 1815, and the coin was likely used as a means of promoting the Russian monarchy and its influence over Poland. Despite this historical context, the coin remains a valuable collector's item and a symbol of Poland's rich numismatic heritage.
