Interesting fact
The Talar koronny - Stefan Batory (Olkusz) 1580 coin from the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth features an image of King Stefan Batory on one side and the Polish coat of arms on the other. It was made of silver and was used as a standard circulation coin during its time. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The country was facing threats from neighboring powers and was in the process of transforming from a feudal state to a modern nation-state. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of the region.
