Interesting fact

The Pattern Złotówka koronna was a proposed coinage system that was never implemented, and only a few pattern coins were struck. One of the most interesting facts about this coin is that it features a portrait of Stanisław August Poniatowski, who was the last king of Poland, on the obverse, and an image of the Polish eagle on the reverse. This coin is a rare example of a coin that was never circulated but still holds significant historical value.
