| Additional information |
Wincenty Witos led the Polish People's Party through three separate stints as Prime Minister during the turbulent interwar period, but it was his 1926 arrest by the Sanacja regime — following Piłsudski's May Coup — that cemented his status as a martyr of Polish democratic politics. He was tried before a court widely condemned as political theater, fled to Czechoslovakia before sentencing, and spent years in exile before returning to a Poland already sliding toward the Second World War.
This issue belongs to NBP's long-running series honoring figures of national significance, struck in a relatively small collector mintage with no circulation role whatsoever.
