A distinctive type of sixpence minted at the Cracow mint with a portrait used for minting Danzig ducats.

Coin in poor state of preservation, but all elements allowing to determine typology and identification well visible. Very rare, valued and sought after by collectors. Even in such a poor state of preservation, the numismatic coin is very rare and practically unavailable on the collectors' market.
