Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Ort / 18 Groszy - August III (Lipsk) 1753 from Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth made of Silver 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 part of a series of coins minted during his reign, and it features an image of the king on one side and the Polish coat of arms on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting was a significant departure from the previous copper coins that had been used in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and it reflected the growing influence of Western European economic and monetary systems on the region.
