Interesting fact

The Pattern Dwuzłotówka koronna was a prototype coin designed by Stanisław August Poniatowski, the last king of Poland, in 1771. It was intended to be used as a new currency for the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, but it was never widely adopted. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable and highly sought-after collector's item, with only a few examples known to exist today.
