Hubert Kostka was one of the most decorated Polish alpine skiers of the communist era, winning multiple national titles during the 1960s and competing internationally when Polish athletes had limited access to Western equipment and funding. The Museum of Sport and Tourism in Warsaw has issued a series of these collector souvenir notes honoring figures largely unknown outside Poland, and Kostka fits that brief precisely — celebrated domestically, almost invisible in broader European sports historiography.
Oberthur Fiduciaire produced the physical note, as they do for the overwhelming majority of the eurozone souvenir zero series. No legal tender value, no circulation story worth telling.
