Interesting fact

The 3 Grosze Polskie 1831 coin was minted during the Russian Partition of Poland, a period when Poland was occupied and divided by Russia, Prussia, and Austria. Despite being issued by the Russian authorities, the coin features the Polish coat of arms and the inscription "3 Grosze Polskie" in Polish, indicating the coin's intended use in the Polish territories under Russian rule. This coin is a rare example of a currency issued by a foreign power that still bears the symbols and language of the occupied territory.
