Poland 1919 Bank Polski 1 Zloty specimen, series S.36B, serial 060793 and specimen control number 1893, with red WZÓR and BEZ WARTOŚCI overprints and two vertically arranged circular perforations.

Poland 1919 - Bank Polski 1 Zloty Specimen S.36B 060793 with WZÓR and BEZ WARTOŚCI Overprints (Pick 51s)

Designed, engraved, and printed shortly after Poland regained independence, the note formed part of the first zloty issue prepared for the restored Polish state. Although produced in 1919, the issue remained in reserve while the Polish marka continued as the circulating currency. It was released in 1924 during the monetary reform introduced under Prime Minister Wladyslaw Grabski, when the new zloty replaced the inflation-damaged marka and Bank Polski became the central issuing institution.

Poland 1946 - 1 Zloty Narodowy Bank Polski Specimen (Pick 123s)

The note carries a red SPECIMEN overprint across both sides together with red diagonal cancellation lines extending from corner to corner. These permanent markings identified the note as a specimen and prevented its use as circulating currency. Like the issued note, it was produced without a serial number or prefix. The paper incorporates a multi-tone watermark composed of repeating light and dark triangles across the full surface.
