Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Talar koronny - August II Mocny (Lipsk) 1702 coin is that it features an image of King Augustus II of Poland (also known as Augustus the Strong) on one side, and the Polish coat of arms on the other. This coin was minted during the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, a short-lived political entity that existed from 1569 to 1795. Despite its relatively brief existence, the Commonwealth was known for its cultural and economic achievements, and this coin is a testament to that. The fact that it was made of silver also speaks to the wealth and prosperity of the region at the time.
