Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Dukat gdański - August II Mocny (Gdańsk) 1698 coin is that it features a unique blend of Polish and Lithuanian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side bears the image of August II Mocny, the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of Gdańsk, which includes a shield with the Polish eagle and the Lithuanian Vytis. This blending of symbols reflects the close political and cultural ties between Poland and Lithuania during the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth era.
