Product description
This is an inspiring coin that transports collectors into the realm of culture, legend, and literary imagination. The coin refers to the legendary nobleman-sorcerer known from Polish folklore, who in literature and folklore functions as the embodiment of mystery, mastery of magical knowledge, and folk fantasy. The design aimed to capture this rich cultural layer and translate it into the language of minting art, creating a piece that combines collectible value with a strong symbolic context. The message of the coin is noteworthy: it is not only an offering for numismatics enthusiasts, but also for those who appreciate literary and cultural motifs in numismatics and those who wish to have a piece in their collection that carries a narrative and history. It is an excellent item for both thematic collectors and those who wish to enrich their collections with a coin with a clear symbolic and cultural message.
Appearance of the coin
This coin stands out for its serious, reflective composition, in which the mint design emphasizes the memory of Father Jan Twardowski and his thoughts, creating a coherent whole with both symbolic and artistic significance. The reverse of the coin focuses on the bust of Father Jan Twardowski – his image is presented in a subtle, realistic manner that reflects the calm and cheerful character of the artist and encourages reflection. Surrounding the central motif is a characteristic quote from his work, "Let us hurry to love people, they leave so quickly," written in several lines, and a facsimile of his signature. In the background, a fragment of a cross can be seen, which further reinforces the religious and personal significance of the design. The obverse of the coins features a classic administrative layout. In its central part, there is the emblem of the Republic of Poland in the form of a crowned eagle, above which the name of the issuing country and the year of issue are placed, and on the sides there are elements complementing the composition, which emphasize the official character of the collector's issue.
Historical overview
The broadcast dedicated to Father Jan Twardowski was prepared as a tribute to one of the most recognizable creators of contemporary spiritual culture in Poland. Its purpose was to commemorate a figure who, through simple language, deep reflection, and sensitivity to everyday life, was able to reach a very wide audience, regardless of age or worldview.
Father Jan Twardowski went down in history not only as a poet, but also as a priest who was close to people, addressing the themes of transience, love, and the meaning of life in his work. His poetry, devoid of pathos, yet full of spiritual depth, became an important element of Polish cultural identity at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. Commemorating this figure in the form of a collector coin is an attempt to preserve the memory of the values he preached – simplicity, empathy, and attentiveness to other people.
The coin was also created as a symbolic tool, reminding us of the role of words and reflection in a world dominated by haste and superficiality. Its issue is part of a broader trend in numismatics commemorating cultural figures who shaped the social and spiritual sensibilities of subsequent generations, making it not only a collector's item, but also a lasting symbol of remembrance.
