Interesting fact
The Półtalar koronny coin featuring Stanisław August Poniatowski (Warszawa) 1783-1784 from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was the first coin to feature the image of a Polish king since the reign of King Sigismund II Augustus in the 16th century. This coin was a significant departure from the standard design of coins during that time, which typically featured an image of the Virgin Mary or other religious figures. The introduction of a secular image on a coin was seen as a symbol of the growing influence of the Enlightenment and the rise of secularism in Poland.
