Interesting fact
The Dwudukat 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. This coin was used as a standard circulation coin in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during that time, and it was made of gold. It's interesting to note that the coin's design featured the image of King Sigismund III Vasa, which was a departure from the traditional design of Polish coins that featured the Polish eagle. This coin is now considered a rare and valuable collector's item, and it's a fascinating piece of history from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth era.
