Interesting fact

The Pattern Półtalar koronny was a prototype coin designed by Stanisław August Poniatowski, the last king of Poland, in 1771. It was intended to be used as a new currency for the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, but it was never widely adopted. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable collector's item and a symbol of Polish history and culture.
