Catalog description

This Polish circulating coin has a denomination of 2 zlotys and was issued in 2009 as part of a series marking the 180th anniversary of central banking in Poland. It belongs to the modern Fourth Zloty currency system introduced in 1995 and is made from Nordic gold, a copper-based alloy widely used for circulating coins with a distinctive golden appearance. Giving central banking a place on a coin intended for everyday use illustrates how commemorative themes can also become part of ordinary monetary circulation. In the economic conditions of the period, 2 zlotys represented a modest everyday sum, although its purchasing power varied considerably by year, locality, and type of purchase. The 2009 issue is especially appealing to collectors who focus on Polish circulating commemoratives, modern monetary history, or complete date runs. Its documented printed mintage of 1,300,000 pieces places it among issues that can be collected both for its historical theme and for its place in regular circulation.
