Dmowski remains a genuinely contested figure in Polish historiography — architect of the 1919 Paris Peace Conference negotiations that secured Poland's western borders, but also an open antisemite whose National Democracy movement promoted ethnic exclusion as state policy. The NBP's decision to issue this coin was not without domestic criticism. Poland has commemorated him several times in its collector series precisely because his role in re-establishing statehood after the 1918 partitions is impossible to dismiss, however uncomfortable the rest of his politics.
