Interesting fact

The Pattern 50 Zlotys coin was designed by Polish artist and engraver, Stanisława Wątróbska-Frindt, and features an image of Bolesław II Śmiały, a medieval Polish king, on its obverse side. The reverse side of the coin depicts the Polish coat of arms and the denomination. The coin was minted in 1981 as a trial strike, which means that it was not intended for circulation and was instead produced as a sample or proof coin. As a result, only a limited number of these coins were minted, making them highly sought after by collectors.
