Additional information

The półtorak — worth one and a half groszy — was introduced under Sigismund III Vasa as a practical response to chronic small-denomination shortages across the Commonwealth. Bydgoszcz operated as one of the crown's primary minting centers during this period, and the output of 1615 was substantial enough that die wear and variety proliferation are common across surviving examples. Górecki's specialized cataloguing of this type reflects just how many die marriages exist within a single year's production.
