Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Casimir III the Great, who was the last king of Poland from the Piast dynasty and ruled from 1333 to 1370. He is remembered for his efforts to strengthen the Polish state and his support for the development of cities and trade. The coin itself is made of copper and weighs 0.91 grams, which was a common weight for coins of its time.
