| Beschrijving voorzijde | Armored bust of Stefan Batory facing right, wearing a crown and elaborate plate armor with decorative details, occupying the central field. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the Renaissance style typical of late 16th-century Polish coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the bust, reading STEPHANVS D G REX POLONIAE, with the date 1580 incorporated into the legend at the upper left. The portrait conveys regal authority with fine engraving of the armor's surface ornamentation. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Stefan Batory's thaler series from the Olkusz mint is inseparable from the politics of that mint's existence. Olkusz was chosen precisely because its nearby silver deposits — mined since the medieval period — gave the Commonwealth a domestic bullion source independent of imported metal. Batory pushed aggressively to expand Polish minting capacity during his wars with Muscovy, and the Olkusz facility bore much of that pressure through the late 1570s and into 1580.
Kop#553 and #554 represent distinct die variants catalogued by Kopicki, most likely differentiated by punctuation or legend arrangement — a common source of multiplication in this series given the number of working dies in simultaneous use.
