| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned, armored bust of King Władysław IV Vasa facing right, depicted in high relief with long flowing hair and a short beard, wearing an elaborately decorated breastplate with chainmail gorget. The king's crown is of the open Polish royal type, richly ornamented with pearls and crosses. The effigy is set within a plain inner circle, with a rope-beaded border separating it from the outer legend. The circumferential Latin legend reads: VLAD IIII D G REX POL ET SVEC M D LITV RVSS PRVSS. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Władysław IV's Gdańsk talers were struck under a longstanding privilege that granted the city the right to mint its own coinage — a concession the Polish crown repeatedly tried to claw back and Gdańsk repeatedly defended through legal maneuver and outright bribery of royal officials. The city's merchant class depended on a reliable heavy silver coin for Baltic trade, and the taler format served that commerce far more than it served Warsaw's fiscal interests.
The Kopicki references span at least five die varieties across the decade of issue, differentiated primarily by subtle changes in the city's armorial and the positioning of mint master marks — details that matter considerably for precise attribution.
