Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Circulating commemorative coin 2 Thalers (Toruń under siege) 1629 from City of Toruń (Polish States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Poland's history. The coin was issued in 1629, during the Swedish Deluge, a series of conflicts between Poland and Sweden that lasted from 1626 to 1631. Despite the challenges of war, the city of Toruń was able to mint this commemorative coin, which features an image of the city's coat of arms on one side and the Polish king, Sigismund III Vasa, on the other. This coin serves as a testament to the resilience and determination of the people of Toruń during a difficult period in their history.
