Description

The coin features a well-known illustration by Andrzej Mleczko, showing Santa
Claus caught in the rush of the holidays as he faces the unforgiving letter of the law.
It’s a scene that perfectly captures the artist’s signature blend of humor, absurdity,
and keen observation of everyday life. The design faithfully translates Mleczko’s original
drawing onto silver, preserving the lightness of line and the instantly recognizable
style. The result is an intelligent commentary on reality — witty, ironic, and thoughtprovoking
at the same time. This festive piece is dedicated to admirers of Polish satire
and collectors who value irony, distance, and artistic expression rendered in silver.
