Catalog description

This 5-zloty coin belongs to Poland’s “Discover Poland” series, which highlights places and monuments connected with the country’s cultural heritage. The 2023 issue features Gościkowo-Paradyż, a former Cistercian monastic complex and an important example of historic ecclesiastical architecture in Poland. Its subject combines the everyday, circulating role of the modern zloty with the educational purpose of bringing lesser-known heritage sites to wider attention.

It is a standard circulating bimetallic coin, with an aluminium-bronze centre and a copper-nickel ring. The obverse carries the familiar White Eagle design used on Poland’s circulating coinage together with the denomination, while the reverse refers to the complex at Gościkowo-Paradyż. The stated production figure for this variety is 1,000,000 pieces, making it readily obtainable while still appealing to collectors as part of a place-themed series. In 2023, five zlotys represented the purchasing power of a small everyday purchase, such as a modest snack or drink, although this naturally varied by location and price level.
