Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Dukat koronny - Jan II Kazimierz Waza (Wschowa) 1650 coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The coin was issued by King Jan II Kazimierz Waza in 1650, just a few years before the Swedish Deluge, a devastating conflict that lasted from 1655 to 1660 and had a profound impact on the Commonwealth. Despite this, the coin remains a testament to the rich cultural and economic heritage of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during this time period.
