Comment
Raczyński 401 ; Khant 653Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Dwudukat - August III Sas (Drezno) 1747 coin is that it was minted during the reign of August III, who was the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania from 1733 until his death in 1763. This coin was minted to commemorate his reign and features an image of him on one side and the Polish-Lithuanian coat of arms on the other. It was made of gold, which was a valuable and prestigious metal at the time, and was likely only available to the wealthy elite. This coin is now a rare and valuable collector's item, providing a glimpse into the history and culture of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during the 18th century.
