| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse presents a finely detailed portrait bust of Major Bronisław C. Kamiński in military uniform, facing slightly left, rendered in bold relief against a highly polished field. To the left of the portrait, a Polish military decoration — the Cross of Valour — is depicted in high relief. The legend 'Warszawskie Termopile' arcs along the upper left rim in italic script, with the date '20–21 IX 1939' inscribed along the upper right. The identification legend 'mjr Bronisław C. Kamiński' is inscribed in italic script along the lower field. The engraver's mark appears in the lower right field. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Poland's commemoration of Thermopylae connects to a specific strand of national mythology: the 300 Spartans have long served Polish romantic-nationalist culture as a model of defiant last stands, a parallel drawn most explicitly during the Warsaw Uprising of 1944, when outgunned Polish Home Army units held districts of the city for 63 days against overwhelming German force. This coin ties that classical precedent directly to Warsaw, framing the uprising within a longer European tradition of sacrificial resistance rather than isolating it as purely Polish tragedy.
The KM# Y1170 attribution places it within NBP's ongoing collector series pairing ancient battles with Polish historical echoes — a program that has drawn both acclaim and criticism for the looseness of some historical analogies it proposes.
