Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Czterodukat gdański - Władysław IV Waza (Gdańsk) 1641 coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The coin was issued in 1641, just a few years before the Swedish Deluge, a devastating conflict that lasted from 1655 to 1660 and had a profound impact on the Commonwealth. Despite this, the coin remains a testament to the rich cultural and economic heritage of the region during that time.
