Żebrowski about the coin with the Witcher: "How wonderful!"

Created in cooperation with Andrzej Sapkowski, the coin with the Witcher made a striking impression not only on fans of the Witcher Saga, but also on Polish people involved in the production of the series "The Witcher".

 

Tomasz Bagiński 

In January we met with Tomasz Bagiński - an outstanding Polish creator, director, animator and executive producer of the latest series "The Witcher" on the Netflix platform.
During the meeting we listened to many interesting stories from the film world.
We  introduced Mr. Tomasz to the world of contemporary numismatics and, of course, told him about the production of our coins with the Witcher. Mr. Bagiński received his copy of the coin.
From this meeting our showcase is decorated with boxes for the Witcher with Mr. Bagiński's autograph.

Maciej Musiał 

Our next meeting took place with Maciej Musiał - an actor who played the role of Sir Lazlo in the latest series "The Witcher" on the Netflix platform. He played the knight of Cintra, serving Queen Clanthe, whose task was to ensure the safety of Ciri - the Queen's granddaughter.
Mr. Maciej told us about the work on the set, whose main location was in Budapest. We could see what it's like to be an actor of the young generation performing in such a big undertaking.
Our employees thanked us with a story about Polish and world numismatics. He must have been very interested in the Witcher coin - he admired the detail of all the details on the reverse and the obverse, and asked questions about collector coins.
After the meeting the actor came back together with his copy of The Witcher :)
Mr. Maciej also signed for us boxes, which already decorate our showcase.

Michał Żebrowski 

At the end of January we also had the opportunity to meet at the "Teatr 6.piętro" with Mr. Michał Żebrowski - an outstanding Polish actor, who years ago played the role of Geralt of Rivia himself in a Polish production, and in his latest series "The Witcher" on the Netflix platform, he was the voice of the Polish dubbing main character.
Mr. Michal told us a lot of interesting memories from the set - how it was to create a fantasy series in Polish reality, and also how difficult it was to create colorful lenses and... white, heavy hair :) For many Poles the character of Geralt is inseparably associated with Mr. Żebrowski.
We have brought a little closer the topic of investing in bullion and collector's coins and on the stage of the theater we gave Mr. Żebrowski a coin to his own hands :) We are very pleased that the coin was so positively received! "Years later I got a distinction from Gdańsk, which is particularly close to me. Thank you very much that I got the coin. Mega cool idea. How wonderful!" said the actor.
Our employees are fans of Mr. Żebrowski's talent, that's why Mr. Michał signed the coin boxes for us, which joined our little witch's "collection".

Thank you all very much for meeting us! We are glad that the wonderful Polish product, which is "The Witcher" has gained such fame also abroad. These characters contributed to the popularity of the Witcher.
The series of our coins will consist of 8 issues, corresponding to books in the main witcher's soot. Who knows where and to whom the next copies of the coin will go...:).
