Ach, it's a matter of taste. The beauty of some objects is easier to judge. The world's most beautiful coin is like the world's most beautiful vagina, quite hard to judge, really.

I like the 5 zl coin, especially when it's in my pocket. :)

‘The most beautiful coin in the world”

This one?

If it were called "the most handsome coin in the world", it could be meaningful.
(however, it is clear why it was chosen, a romantic musician portrait is depicted and it is a new fresh breath after all political, religious and army portraits on the coins.)

buy as a souvenir or collectors' item

From a dealer's point of view, it may well be worth the investment ;)

A sincere thanks PF, for putting up with me FIVE terrific years, muah!
