The king bears a short beard and moustache, rendered in a bold Renaissance portrait style. A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy, separated from the inner field by a rope-twist border. The legend reads STEPHAN D: G: REX POL D: PRVSS, abbreviated titles proclaiming him King of Poland and Lord of Prussia. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Stefan Batory wrested control of Gdańsk's mint in 1577 following a brief but decisive military campaign against the city, which had backed the Habsburg claimant to the Polish throne. The city capitulated and was forced to strike royal coinage under Batory's authority — an arrangement that produced some of the most technically accomplished silver of his reign, the Gdańsk minters being among the most skilled in the Commonwealth.
The Iger G.79 reference places this among documented die combinations for the 1579 issue. Gdańsk trojaks of this period are frequently encountered with varied die alignments and minor legend breaks, a consequence of the mint's high output across multiple working dies simultaneously.
