The Kościuszko Uprising of 1794 was the last serious attempt to preserve Polish sovereignty before the Third Partition erased the country from the map entirely. Tadeusz Kościuszko, fresh from his service in the American Revolutionary War, led a coalition of regulars and scythe-armed peasant volunteers — the kosynierzy — against Russian and Prussian forces. The revolt failed by November, and the Third Partition followed in 1795, ending Polish statehood for over a century.
NBP's commemorative program has grown increasingly ambitious with its 2-troy-ounce .999 fine issues, and this entry belongs to that heavier tier reserved for subjects of particular national gravity.
