Interesting fact

The Dukat toruński was a gold coin minted in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during the reign of King Sigismund III Vasa in the 17th century. What's interesting about this coin is that it was minted in the city of Toruń, which was an important center of trade and commerce in the region. The coin's design features the image of King Sigismund III Vasa on one side and the coat of arms of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth on the other. The coin was used as a standard unit of currency throughout the Commonwealth and was valued at 3.52 grams of gold.
