Interesting fact

The Czterodukat coin was minted during the reign of King Jan III Sobieski, who was a prominent figure in Polish history. He was known for his military victories, particularly the Battle of Vienna in 1683, which halted the Ottoman Empire's expansion into Europe. The coin's design features an image of the king on one side and the Polish coat of arms on the other. It's made of gold and weighs 13.858 grams, making it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
