Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Szóstak gdański - August III Sas (Gdańsk) 1760-1763 coin is that it features a unique design element - a small anchor symbol on the reverse side, which was added to the coin's design to signify the importance of the port city of Gdańsk in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
