Poland, Wladislaus IV, the Crown, thaler 1633, Bydgoszcz mint, Jakub Jakobson.
King armoured, with a collar and badge of the Order of the Golden Fleece; at the bottom, the shield of Sas of Grand Treasurer Jan Daniłowicz. At the royal orb, a vertical bulge (!) coming from the die.
Silver, 28.77 g, 44.0 mm. Kopicki 1488 (R); Gumowski MBydg. 996; Czapski 1743; Zagórski 410.
Grade: XF, minor wear on bulges, uneven flan surface.
It is true that the coin looks much better in photos (and in real life!) than in the drawings in old books, and Gumowski's claim that "the drawing is not very artistic" is not true in reality. It is a beautiful portrait of a slim, young and promising king...
