The Mint of Poland – 255 years of tradition

The Mint of Poland has once again immortalised the work of prominent Polish artist Zdzislaw Beksinski on its coins. "Ballerina" is the second of five coins of the first series, commemorating the artist's outstanding works in pure silver — the mintage of 700 copies of the collector's coin sold out in less than 28 hours. The Mint of Poland is the only one in the world to have exclusive rights to mint coins with reproductions of Zdzislaw Beksinski's works, in close cooperation with the Historical Museum in Sanok. The silver coins with the paintings, known and admired in Poland and worldwide, are a unique tribute to the extraordinary artist and his work. Three series of coins are ultimately planned, with five subjects in each.
