“Aeroplane” is the forth commemorative coin of the “How Man Conquered the Skies” series.
The Mint of Poland, in an effort to bring man’s dreams of conquering the skies and admiring the world from up above closer, decided to produce a new series of silver –commemorative coins, entitled “How Man Conquered the Skies” to present the numerous attempts over the years to soar through the air. The first coin of the series depicted Icarus, the mythological forerunner of aviation. The second coin presented the invention of the Montgolfier brothers – the hot air balloon whilethe third commemorated the Glider designed by Otto Lilienthal.

The coins will be struck at a very low mintage – up to 6,000 pieces – using Ag 925 blanks, in proof quality.
