Second Złoty: Interwar & Wartime Coins (1923–1949)
Following the hyperinflation of the Polish Mark, the Second Złoty was introduced in 1924 as a symbol of a reborn nation's economic stability. This era represents the pinnacle of Polish coin design, blending neoclassical themes with bold Art Deco aesthetics. From the iconic "Goddess" (Polonia) silver coins to the wartime issues under occupation and the rare early post-war aluminum strikes of 1949, this collection captures Poland's turbulent journey through independence, world war, and reconstruction. Collectors will find a rich variety of materials, including silver, bronze, and iron, reflecting the shifting fortunes of a nation in the heart of Europe.
