Comment
Bolesław Mieszkowic (Bolesław kujawski) or Leszek mazowiecko-kujawski (Leszek Bolesławowic)Mint: Kruszwica or Inowrocław or Płock
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Bolesław Mieszkowic or Leszek of Masovia, who was a prominent duke in the Polish States during the 12th century. The coin was minted during his reign, which lasted from 1173 to 1195, and it was made of silver, which was a valuable and durable material at the time. The fact that the coin has survived for so many centuries and is still in circulation today is a testament to the craftsmanship and durability of the medieval coin makers.
