Reverse description Central shield bearing the combined arms of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth: the Polish eagle and the Lithuanian Pursuer (Pahonia), surmounted by a crown, with the Vasa dynastic sheaf (garb) on an inescutcheon at the centre. The denomination numeral III appears at the top of the field above the shield. Flanking the shield are the Polish eagle to the left and the Lithuanian mounted knight to the right, both rendered in characteristic late 16th-century engraving style. A four-line Latin inscription across the lower field reads GROS ARG TRIP REG POLONIE, meaning silver triple groat of the Kingdom of Poland, with the last line displaying the date split around the Olkusz mint mark.
