Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Dukat gdański - Michał Korybut Wiśniowiecki (Gdańsk) 1670 coin is that it features a unique blend of Polish and Lithuanian influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features an image of Michał Korybut Wiśniowiecki, a prominent nobleman and military leader from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, while the reverse side features the coat of arms of Gdańsk, a city in northern Poland. This blend of Polish and Lithuanian elements reflects the cultural and political ties between the two nations during the 17th century, when the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was a powerful state in Eastern Europe.
