RR-, Stefan Batory, 1577 siege sash, Goebel, Gdansk, R3, minted

The smallest denomination minted during the siege of Gdansk, in 1577, by the troops of Stefan Batory. The type was issued under the management of the mint by the townsman of Danzig, Kacper Goebel. The siege shillings were minted from very weak, 2³³ silver, hence the difficulty of finding well-preserved pieces. Here the numismatic deep, central minted with a fine mint luster characteristic of coins pressed on a cylinder press. These shillings in mint condition are practically not found on the market.
