Very Fine; pierced, light scratches. Very Rare.

From a private European collection.

With the re-opening of the mint at Kraków in 1601 the design of the trojak was standardised, replacing the variety previously seen in the types produced from the different Polish mints including Bydgoszcz, where this very rare example from the final year before the imposition of the new design was minted.
