Obverse description Draped and armored bust of King Jan III Sobieski facing right, wearing an ornate royal crown with jewelled band and arched top. The effigy shows the king with a short beard and prominent facial features, dressed in a fur-trimmed mantle with decorative clasps visible at the shoulder. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, reading IOAN III DG REX POL M D L R P, denoting his titles as King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania. The portrait is rendered in a Baroque style typical of late 17th-century Polish royal coinage.
