Sigismund III Vasa, Trojak 1597, Vilnius
Portrait of the king with his head facing right with a tubular orifice.
Variety with the full date 15 - 97 separated by the mintmaster's mark "ox's head pierced with hooks" (Simon Lidman - mintmaster of the Vilnius mint) and the Chalecki coat of arms (Demetrius Chalecki - Great Treasurer of Lithuania) at the bottom on the reverse.
Condition: 2
Minor imperfections of the disc and minting, but a very nicely preserved coin. Good detail. Gloss and lots of mint mirror. A rarer vintage.
