Everyone at CoinTalk likes coins. You will find more collector interest in Poland coins the World & Ancient coin forum (not Coin Chat). I bought this coin a month ago. Would you consider this a Polish coin? I think it circulated in the area that is modern day Poland but it was actually minted just to the north of modern day Poland.
Would you consider this a Polish coin? Hello Poland Coins, I understand that you re-posted in the World & Ancient Coin Forum. I am still interested in your opinion of this coin. Would you consider this a Polish coin?
I'm sorry I forgot to answer you;] so this is pretty old Polish coin of 1682 year I specializes in August in the new coins and is interested in only new since 1990.
From the "Coa Valley Archeological Site" topic ... My "problem" with coins from Poland is that they issue way too many. This for example is a list of the pieces that came out last year: http://www.nbp.pl/homen.aspx?f=/en/banknoty/kolekcjonerskie/2011.html If one collects Polish pieces only, keeping track will be easier, and of course you can always focus on the 2 zł coins that are issued at face value. But for people like me who also collect euro coins, and quite a few others, but always selectively, it still is challenging. As for the two links, the Krzemionki website (English version here http://www.en.krzemionki.info/index_x.php) tells you more about the location and what was found there; the NBP is the Polish central bank which does not sell coins. Now the Polish Mint does (see English pages here http://www.mennica.com.pl/en/main-page.html) but they have a store http://www.skarbiecmennicy.pl/ in Polish only, and otherwise work with local distributors.

OK guys...no more political discussions. I don't want to have to clean up this thread again. Stay on topic. Consider this a warning.
Let's talk about functional analysis then. Nah, I won't ... and could not. However, in April Poland honored Stefan Banach, one of the most influential modern mathematicians. You can read more about him here (Wikipedia) and here (coin brochure, PDF/English). Three pieces were issued on that occasion: * a base metal (Nordic Gold) coin with a mintage of 800,000 * a silver (Ag 925) coin, mintage 45,000 * and a gold (Au 900) coin, mintage 4,000. Depicted below are the first two. The gold coin can be seen in the brochure or in the hi-res links: 2 zł NG obv: http://www.nbp.pl/banknoty_i_monety...we/2012/2012_05___stefan_banach_2zl_A_big.jpg 2 zł NG rev: http://www.nbp.pl/banknoty_i_monety...we/2012/2012_05___stefan_banach_2zl_R_big.jpg 10 zł silver obv: http://www.nbp.pl/banknoty_i_monety...e/2012/2012_05___stefan_banach_10zl_A_big.jpg 10 zł silver rev: http://www.nbp.pl/banknoty_i_monety...e/2012/2012_05___stefan_banach_10zl_R_big.jpg 200 zł gold obv: http://www.nbp.pl/banknoty_i_monety.../2012/2012_05___stefan_banach_200zl_A_big.jpg 200 zł gold rev: http://www.nbp.pl/banknoty_i_monety.../2012/2012_05___stefan_banach_200zl_R_big.jpg Christian
