Interesting fact
The Pattern Trojak gdański coin was minted during the reign of August III Sas, who was the King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania from 1733 to 1763. It was a test coin, also known as a "pattern" coin, which was minted in small quantities to test the design and quality of the coin before mass production. The fact that it was made of lead, a relatively inexpensive metal, suggests that it was not intended for circulation but rather for presentation or collectible purposes.
