Interesting fact
The Ducat - Fryderyk Christian as Polish Prince (Drezno) 1763 coin was minted during a time of great change in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The coin was issued during the reign of King Stanisław August Poniatowski, who was the last king of Poland before the country was partitioned and disappeared from the map for over a century. The coin's design features Fryderyk Christian, the son of the Duke of Saxony, who was chosen as the Polish Prince in 1763, but never actually ruled the country. Despite this, the coin was still minted and circulated as a symbol of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth's rich history and cultural heritage.
