| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features the quartered arms of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth — the White Eagle of Poland and the Pahonia (mounted knight) of Lithuania — surmounted by a royal crown with a cross finial, all within a baroque shield. The date is divided on either side of the shield (17-88 for the illustrated example), and the mint master's initials E.B. appear below the shield together with the denomination 4.GR. A circular Latin legend distributed around the periphery reads 83 1/2 EX MARCA PURA COLON., indicating the fineness and weight standard per Cologne mark of pure silver. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
These złotówki were struck during the Commonwealth's final, desperate attempt at self-preservation — the period spanning the Constitution of May 3rd, 1791 through the Kościuszko Uprising and the Third Partition of 1795, after which Poland ceased to exist as a sovereign state for 123 years. The Warsaw mint continued striking coinage even as Russian troops occupied the capital, making the later dates in this range effectively emergency issues produced under occupation.
The .550 fineness was itself a compromise — lower than the Commonwealth's earlier silver standards, reflecting chronic treasury shortages that plagued Poniatowski's reign from the outset.
