Sigismund III, 3 groschen 1601, Vilnius

An exquisite, periwinkle piece, with sharp luster and subtle patina.
Delicate scarcity in the area of the king's chin.
One of the finest trojak of this type on the collector's market (we recommend viewing in person).

A typologically valued trojak from the Lithuanian mint.
Rarer variety with the Swan coat of arms and the letter W instead of V (the designation of the Lithuanian mint) on the reverse.
Inscription variant of the obverse legend SIG 3, on the reverse a lean Eagle without a crown.
An undescribed punctuation variant in the Iger catalog.

A great rarity in this state of preservation.
A coin definitely worth recommending for the best collections!
