Additional information

Trial strikes from Mennica Polska in this period were produced to test dies and planchet specifications before committing to full production runs — they were never intended for circulation or official release. This piece predates Poland's 1994 redenomination, which lopped four zeros off the currency and rendered face values like 200,000 złotych obsolete overnight. The nickel composition here differs from the gold and silver versions that actually reached collectors; trial material in base metal from this era rarely surfaces outside specialist Polish auctions.
