Interesting fact

The Pattern Trojak koronny was a test coin minted in 1635 by King Władysław IV Waza of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. It was made of silver and was intended to be used as a pattern for a new coinage system, but it was never widely circulated. Despite its rarity, the coin has been well-preserved and is now highly sought after by collectors. In fact, a mint-state example of the coin sold for over $15,000 at auction in 2017!
