A variant featuring Pogoń with a sword scabbard on the obverse and an eagle with its upper feathers pointing upward on the reverse – rare.
Punctuation in the form of rings.
Error—in the word MONETA … the letter E was struck in a mirror image—very rare.
Condition: 3/3+
A circulated but fully legible piece. A rare variant of the Pogoń design and a rare combination of dies. A very rare error—the mirrored “E” in “MONETA.” A very rare coin and difficult to find on the collectors’ market. An attractive piece for specialized collections.
