Catalog description

This 2-zloty coin belongs to Poland’s Fourth Zloty monetary system, established in 1995, and presents Warsaw’s Old Town within the “Cities in Poland” series. The 2010 issue combines a current circulating denomination with a subject referring to one of Poland’s most important historic urban areas. It therefore has both the practical character of everyday money and the commemorative appeal of a city-themed issue.

The variant is made of the distinctive Nordic gold alloy used in Poland for selected circulating coins of higher denominations; its golden colour does not indicate the presence of gold. It is 27 mm in diameter and weighs 8.15 g, with the marking “2010 MW” recorded for the edge. In 2010, 2 zlotys represented a small but useful amount for minor everyday purchases, although purchasing power varied according to place and type of purchase. Collectors may appreciate the combination of a nationwide thematic programme, a readily recognisable Warsaw subject, and a coin produced in a format intended for circulation.
