Sigismund III Vasa, Trojak 1599, Poznań - pierced SI/GG
Bust of the king with a tubular orifice and a bow under the orifice.
Variety with the coat of arms of Lewart (Jan Firlej - Grand Treasurer of the Crown) in the shield and the letter P (marking the Poznan mint) on the left and the abbreviated date 99 on the right side of the shield.
Inscribed variety with the king's titular SIG III ... PO M D L on the obverse.
Error - in SIG ... the letter I has been punched with the letter G, punched SI/GG - very rare.
Condition: NGC MS63
Beautifully minted and superbly preserved coin. Intense luster and mint mirror throughout. Mint condition of the coin confirmed by a very high NGC grade. Very rare SI/GG mintmark. In this state of preservation, the coin is rare and difficult to find on the collector market. A beautiful piece for specialized collections.
