Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the Swedish occupation of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, specifically in the city of Elbing (now Elbląg, Poland). The coin features the image of Christina, the Swedish queen, on one side and the Polish coat of arms on the other. This coin is a rare example of a coin minted during a foreign occupation, and its existence reflects the complex history of the region during that time.
