UPDATE: Poland to discontinue the 2zł commemorative coins in 2014. In their place, there will be just 2 issues of commemorative 5zł coins (1 200 000 mintage each). The commemorative coins will now be the same in size and weight as their circulating counterpart. http://wyborcza.pl/1,75248,14361419,NBP_chce_zachecic_Polakow_do_kolekcjonowania_monet_.html
Thanks for the good/bad news. Good because I have always found the 2 złote coins to be in some kind of "in between" position: available at face, but different from the regular coins with the same denomination. If the change takes care of that, great! Then again, I don't know whether I would want to buy a dozen (or so) 5 złotych coins every year ... Christian
Ah yes, my bad - you had even mentioned "just 2" in your previous post. I somehow managed to misunderstand the "16 different coins" in the article (well, in Google's translation of the article) - but that is for the entire eight-year time span. Duh. Christian
