| Additional information |
Casimir III inherited a kingdom his father Władysław I had only recently reunified after over a century of fragmentation, and his monetary reforms were among the most deliberate of his reign. The Kraków mint became the administrative center of a standardized coinage policy — unusual ambition for a mid-fourteenth-century Central European ruler. The five Kopicki reference numbers assigned to this type reflect genuine die and design variations across a thirty-seven-year reign, not mere cataloguing convention.
Casimir died without a legitimate male heir in 1370, ending the Piast dynasty entirely. These deniers outlasted him in circulation by decades.
