Special limited crypto stamp released 11 September 2024 for the 230th anniversary of the 1794 Kościuszko Insurrection, reproducing Jan Matejko's 1888 painting "Kościuszko at Racławice" (National Museum in Kraków). Two versions of 2,000 pieces each — perforated and non-perforated — sold at 75 PLN through the official shop, each with an ERC-1155 token on a dedicated Polygon contract. 600 hand-postmarked NFT crypto covers (300 per version, 95 PLN) carry a fragment of Michał Stachowicz's "Kościuszko's Oath on the Main Market Square in Kraków". Design: Paweł Myszka. Poczta Polska bills it as the first crypto stamp of this kind worldwide.

Curator note: crypto-stamps.org lists this issue under 11 July 2024 with 1,700 + 1,700 stamps and 300 + 300 FDC tokens and four sub-designs per version; the official press release (11 September 2024) and the issuer's token metadata state 2,000 per version including the 300 cover pieces — issuer figures used here, and the per-design split is not published, so only the two versions are modelled. Both versions have the same mintage, hence equal rarity rank. Printer not named.
