It reproduces the presidency logo by Jerzy Janiszewski, who also drew the Solidarity lettering in 1980 and the 2011 presidency sign; the commemorative postmark carries the twelve stars of the EU flag.

The aggregator counts 2,270 NFT stamps and 845 NFT FDCs — the largest NFT take-up of the 2024 commemorative series after NATO; both are open editions.
