Interesting fact

The Półtalar koronny coin was minted during the reign of King Jan II Kazimierz Waza (also known as John II Casimir Vasa) of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, who ruled from 1648 to 1668. This coin was minted in the city of Wschowa, which is located in western Poland. The coin was made of silver and had a value of 1/2 talar, which was a significant denomination at the time. It's worth noting that the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was a powerful state that existed from 1569 to 1795, and it was a significant player in European politics and trade during that time. The currency used in the Commonwealth, including the Półtalar koronny, was the Polish złoty.
