Catalog description

This 5-zloty coin belongs to Poland’s circulating currency and forms part of the “Discover Poland” series devoted to recognisable places and aspects of the country’s heritage. The 2024 issue features the Benedictine Abbey in Tyniec, a historic monastic complex on the Vistula near Kraków. Its modern bimetallic construction, combining an aluminium-bronze centre with a copper-nickel ring, is characteristic of Poland’s circulating coinage in this denomination.

By combining legal-tender use with an image of a historic monument, the coin has both everyday and cultural significance. The series demonstrates how circulating coins can help present Polish architecture, history, and places associated with the country’s cultural identity to a wide public. The 5-zloty denomination forms part of the fourth zloty, introduced in 1995, while the 2024 date may appeal to collectors building complete date runs or specialising in Polish places and heritage. The contrast between the central disc and the outer ring is also a practical and visually distinctive feature of the type, making it readily recognisable in circulation.
