Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Trojak / 3 Grosze coin is that it was minted during the reign of Sigismund III Vasa, who was the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania from 1587 to 1632. He was a member of the powerful Vasa dynasty, which played a significant role in Polish and Lithuanian history. The coin's design features an image of the king on one side and the Polish eagle on the other, symbolizing the unity between Poland and Lithuania.
