Interesting fact
The Półtorak / 3 Polker coin featuring Sigismund III Vasa (Wilno) 1620 from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Europe. The Thirty Years War, which lasted from 1618 to 1648, was a religious conflict that involved many European countries, including Poland-Lithuania. Despite the turmoil, the Commonwealth's economy continued to thrive, and coins like the Półtorak / 3 Polker were used for everyday transactions.
