| Reverse description | The reverse features a crowned Polish eagle displayed with wings spread, rendered in the heraldic style characteristic of Sigismund III coinage. The eagle occupies the central field with its head turned to the right and detailed feather work visible on the wings and breast. A circular legend surrounds the design reading GROSVS REG POLONIE followed by the last two digits of the date (97 or 98), denoting Grossus Regni Poloniae — Groschen of the Kingdom of Poland. The date appears in the upper portion of the legend. The overall style reflects the transitional hammered technique of the Lublin mint in the late sixteenth century. |
