Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Halerz - August II Mocny (Lipsk) 1711-1713 coin from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of August II Mocny, also known as Augustus II the Strong, who was the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania from 1697 to 1706 and again from 1709 to 1733. During his reign, August II Mocny implemented a number of economic reforms, including the creation of a new currency system, which led to the minting of coins like the Halerz. The coin was made of silver and was used widely throughout the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, which at the time was a major power in Eastern Europe. Despite its historical significance, the coin is still relatively rare and highly sought after by collectors today.
