Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays the denomination and issuer's name in four horizontal lines across the centre of the field: the numeral 'I' flanked by two rosette ornaments at top, followed by 'SOLID', then 'R·P·' (abbreviation for Res Publica, i.e. the Polish Republic), and the Kraków mint-master's initial 'G' at the base. The entire design is enclosed within a toothed or grained inner border that runs around the full circumference, giving the coin a distinctive milled appearance on the reverse face.

Aanvullende informatie

These copper szelągi were struck at Kraków during one of the most turbulent stretches of Poniatowski's reign — the period immediately preceding the Bar Confederation, when Russian interference in Commonwealth affairs had reached a point of open manipulation. The Kraków mint had been reopened specifically to expand low-denomination copper coinage, partly to address chronic shortages of small change that had plagued domestic commerce for decades.

The 1767–68 dating places production squarely within the year of the "Repnin Sejm," when Russian ambassador Nikolai Repnin effectively dictated constitutional terms to the Polish parliament under military threat.
