A sought-after and prized trojak called mockingbird over the years.
Striking at the top and cuts ("bites") in the background. Nice luster.
A distinctive coin, the obverse of which is a passage from the second Psalm of David: QVI HABITAT IN COELIS IRRIDEBIT OES. The quote, which was translated as: "he who dwells in heaven will mock them," which was the reason for reading the nature of the issue as mocking.
The coin is still puzzling, against which myths have grown over the years. It was supposed to cause great outrage among the nobility, the clergy and even the dismissal of Gabriel Tarla. B. Paszkiewicz believes that its creation is connected with preparations for the Polish-Lithuanian union, when in 1564 the king decided to link the casting of the Lithuanian throne with the election in Poland. In turn, the quotation from the psalm was supposed to be a declaration of the ruler's will as God's anointed, signed with his royal monogram.
