Interesting fact
The Szeląg koronny coin was issued during the reign of King Jan II Kazimierz Waza (also known as John II Casimir Vasa) of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1663. What's interesting about this coin is that it was made of copper, which was a relatively rare metal at the time, and it weighed only 0.7 grams, making it a very small and lightweight coin. Despite its small size, it was still used as a standard circulation coin and was valued at one szeląg, which was a significant amount during that time period.
