The Mint of Gdańsk launched its new seven-year, 56-coin programme featuring the Polish football legend Robert Lewandowski, just a few months ago, with a pair of silver coins, and the promise of a more varied selection moving forward. That promise is now bearing results, with a new design adorning a coin available in both one-ounce, and tenth-ounce formats.

The coin depicts Lewandowski in three poses, and at different stages in his career. All the figures are enmeshed in a ‘splintered glass’ pattern meant to signify breaking the walls in his career. It’s a nice mash-up, if a little overly busy. The obverse carries the national coat-of-arms of Niue at its centre, around which are lines suggesting the pattern of panels on a football.

Both versions will come boxed with a Certificate of Authenticity, with the larger coin having a mintage of 200 pieces, and the smaller variant, 1,000 units. A good addition to the new series, and there’s more to come, with the silver coin statues looking particularly interesting. Available now.
