Sigismund III Vasa, Grosz 1607, Cracow
First vintage of the Cracow mint issue of portraitless, crown-type groszes.
Large crown with stars on the sides on the obverse.
The coat of arms of Lewart in the shield. The crown divides the obverse inscription on the reverse.
An inscriptional variety with the king's title ending ... LIT on the obverse and ... POLO ... in the rim on the reverse.
State of preservation: 2+
Minor sheet flaws, but a beautifully struck and preserved piece. Mint gloss and mirror finish. A beautiful and quite rare coin.
