Interesting fact
The Półtalar koronny coin was minted during the reign of King Jan II Kazimierz Waza, who was the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania from 1648 to 1668. This coin was used as a standard circulation coin during that time and was made of silver. What's interesting is that the coin features an image of the King on one side and the Polish coat of arms on the other, which was a common design element for coins during that time period. Additionally, the coin's denomination, Półtalar koronny, translates to "Crown Half-Tollar" in English, which refers to the coin's value relative to the Polish currency at the time.
