The first vintage of the so-called light thalers.
A popular vintage behind the great changes in Polish minting that took place during the Kosciuszko Insurrection. At that time, new denominations were introduced (including the one and a half and triple ducat, or the part-penny, which took the place of the copper trojak), and the value of thalers was significantly reduced. Introducing in place of the eight-gold thaler, new smaller six-gold thalers.
Variety with an oak leaf not touching the shield of the coat of arms and a colon after POLON. Rare.
Natural, circulated piece.
Silver, diameter 37.5 mm, weight 23.9 g.
