Kopicki 9599 29 (short date)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Grosz - Gustaw II Adolf (Swedish Occupation) 1629 coin from the City of Elbing (Polish States) is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil and change in the region. The Swedish occupation of Poland, which lasted from 1629 to 1635, was a period of political and military upheaval that had a significant impact on the local population and economy. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the people who lived during that time.
