Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Ort - Karol X Gustaw (Swedish Occupation) 1656-1658 from City of Elbing (Polish States) made of Silver is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil and change in the region. The Swedish occupation of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, which lasted from 1655 to 1660, 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.
