| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a powerful figural scene framed by two rough-textured wooden posts or planks in high relief, evoking a barn or hiding place. Within the aperture formed by the posts, a group of figures — men, women, and children of varying ages — are shown huddled together, rendered with expressive realism in the oxidized silver surface; a woman holding an infant is prominently placed at left. A horizontal banner in the upper field bears the main commemorative legend POLACY RATUJĄCY ŻYDÓW, while a secondary inscription below reads RODZINY ULMÓW, KOWALSKICH, BARANKÓW, naming the Polish families honored. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued under Poland's long-running commemorative program honoring those who sheltered Jews during the German occupation, this coin marks the Żegota network — the only government-sponsored rescue organization operating in Nazi-occupied Europe. Established clandestinely in 1942 under the Polish Government-in-Exile, Żegota provided false documents, safe houses, and financial support to an estimated 50,000 Jews. The oxidized finish is deliberate, chosen repeatedly by the NBP for Holocaust-related issues to distinguish them tonally from celebratory silver strikes.
