Fr-94; H-Cz-5860 (R7); Kop-1848 (R7); Kur-599 (R8); Gum-1786. Weight: 3.36 gms. Obverse: John Casimir standing right, holding scepter and globus cruciger, dressed in coronation mantle; Reverse: Crowned four field coat-of-arms. Originating from the Krakow Mint, this Ducat presents a splendid state of preservation, serving as a wonderful archetypal coin of John Casimir.
