Interesting fact
The August II Mocny (Drezno) ⅛ Talara coin was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The coin was introduced as part of a new currency system aimed at stabilizing the economy and reducing inflation, which had been a problem in the region for many years. Despite these efforts, the coin's value fluctuated greatly during its time in circulation, and it ultimately became a rare and valuable collector's item.
