Aanvullende informatie

The Madonna of Częstochowa, housed at Jasna Góra Monastery in southern Poland, became a focal point of national resistance during the Swedish invasion of the 1650s — the successful defense of the monastery in 1655 is credited with turning Polish Catholic sentiment against the occupiers and reversing the course of the war. Niue's 24-coin series draws on that loaded devotional history, packaging it as a numismatic franchise through the New Zealand Mint.
