Interesting fact

The Trojak koronny was a coin used in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during the 16th century, and the Stefan Batory (Olkusz) 1580 edition was one of the most well-known versions of this coin. What's interesting about this coin is that it was made of silver, which was a valuable and sought-after metal at the time. In fact, the coin was made of 2.32 grams of silver, which was a significant amount for a coin of its size and denomination. This highlights the importance of the Trojak koronny as a form of currency during this time period, and how it was used to facilitate trade and commerce within the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
