Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 100 Dukatów coin is that it was minted during the reign of Sigismund III Vasa, who was the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania from 1587 to 1632. He was a member of the powerful Vasa dynasty, which ruled Poland and Lithuania for over a century. The coin's design features an image of Sigismund III on one side and the Polish coat of arms on the other. The coin's high gold content and detailed design make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
