| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Jan II Kazimierz Waza facing right, wearing armor with elaborate ornamentation visible on the shoulder and chest, occupying the central field. The portrait is rendered in a bold, somewhat crude hammered style characteristic of mid-17th-century Polish coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy reading IOAN CAS · D · G · POL & SVE · REX ·, abbreviating the king's titles as John Casimir, by the grace of God King of Poland and Sweden. The coin displays attractive multicolored toning with iridescent hues across the silver surface. |
