Interesting fact

The Talar elbląski coin was minted during the reign of Jan II Kazimierz Waza, who was the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania from 1648 to 1668. This coin was minted in the city of Elbląg, which was an important center for trade and commerce in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth at the time. The coin's design features an image of the king on one side and the coat of arms of the Commonwealth on the other. It was made of silver and weighed 28.75 grams, which was a significant amount for a circulating coin at that time. I hope you find this information interesting and helpful!
