Ok - so this is not a rare coin, and it was impulse buy. But, to me very cool that this coin is >400 years old! The manufacture is surprisingly high quality vs. other coins of the era (looking at you England).

Plus, got to learn a little bit about Sigismund III, who actually seems to look on this coin like his portrait!


Thoughts and comments welcome.

    The cool aspect is that they are nice well minted coins, common and affordable.

    Doesn't have to be rare to be nice. I dig the little guy on his steed on the rev. Peace Roy

    @Namvet69 - I like that dude, too. Reminds me of my other Poland/Lithuania piece.
