Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Talar koronny - Jan II Kazimierz Waza (Poznań) 1652 coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the Polish royal coat of arms, which was added to the obverse side of the coin. This was a departure from the traditional design of Polish coins, which typically featured the coat of arms on the reverse side. The addition of the shield was a nod to the Polish king's efforts to strengthen the country's military and political power.
