A nice coin with no defects. The reverse retains a lot of natural luster in the background, which is also visible between the letters of the obverse.
A rare vintage of the first of two types of 25-gold coins of the Kingdom of Poland.
A type without a raised rim, prone to rapid abrasion of the portrait relief, especially with such a soft metal as gold.
The rim is obliquely fluted.
Gold, diameter 19 mm, weight 4.89 g.
