R-, Sigismund III Vasa, Shelrog, Olkusz 1589

On the obverse: crowned S border, on the sides letters I-D below Przegonia coat of arms in a cartouche; legend: SIG III D G REX (Przegonia) POL M D LIT, on the reverse in the border crowned coats of arms, in cartouches, of the Crown and Lithuania, below the Vasa sheaf in a cartouche; legend SOLIDVS REG POLON (half-pipe) 1589. The Crown Sheaf of Sigismund III Vasa, is an exceptionally diverse coinage minted at several mints, representing an interesting and still underrated collector's subject. Despite so far, not very high rarity ratings in catalogs, most of them are extremely difficult to collect due to poor minting in coinage silver.
