Interesting fact

The Jan II Kazimierz Waza (Kraków) 1661-1662 Trojak / 3 Grosze coin was minted during a time of great turmoil in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The country was facing political instability, military conflicts, and economic challenges, which led to a shortage of silver and a decrease in the value of the currency. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, with intricate details and designs that showcase the skill of the mint's engravers and craftsmen.
