The coin was minted in Bydgoszcz, which was an important city in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth at the time. The coin was made of silver and weighed 0.63 grams, which was a significant amount for a coin of its time.

The coat of arms features a white eagle on a red background, which is still the national symbol of Poland today. Overall, the Grosz koronny coin is an interesting piece of history that provides a glimpse into the economic and political systems of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during the late 16th and early 17th centuries.
