Thank you, CoinForMe! Yes, I agree that it is one of the most beautiful coins. Poland also minted a 5 and 10 Zlotys at that time with the same design, and then commemorated it in 2006 with 2 and 10 Zlotys. Poland 2 Zlotys 2006 - History of the Zloty: 10 Zlotys 1932 circulating commemorative  Poland 10 Zlotys 2006 - silver proof commemorating the 10 Zlotys of 1932  If you like coins with beautiful women, check out this article: CoinWeek: Ten Powerful and Beautiful Women on Coins

...Thank you, CFM ... I get a number of AU / BU foreign coins from my local coin dealer's "junk box" (coins they have no interest in ) ... this one's not worth much, but I've picked coins worth in excess of 20 bucks for 25 cents apiece ... ...it's a great source of material just to post on this game ...gonna go Monday & spend 5 bucks to re-stock ...
