Interesting fact

The Dukat koronny coin was minted during the reign of Sigismund III Vasa, who was the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania from 1587 to 1632. The coin features an image of the king on one side and the Polish coat of arms on the other. It's interesting to note that Sigismund III was a member of the House of Vasa, a royal dynasty that ruled Poland and Lithuania for over a century. He was also known for his efforts to strengthen the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and promote Catholicism in the region.
