Another coin issued by the National Bank of Poland joined the "History of the Polish Coin" series. This time it presents August III's Gdansk Zloty. The Saxon era is the period when the Polish coin fell. In 1685 the Sejm passed a resolution to close the mints. However, coins with the names of the Saxon rulers were issued - simply made only in Saxony. The ban on minting activities in the Republic of Poland did not cover Royal Prussia. The famous coin from those times is the Gdansk zloty (gulden) with the face value of 30 groszy, from 1762. It was inspired by the issue of the contemporary version of this coin. On the reverse there is a large coat of arms of Gdańsk, while the obverse presents an image of King August III.
