The Mint says about this coin:

The “Half-grosz of Ladislaus Jagiello” closes the second part of “The History of Polish Coin” series issued by the National Bank of Poland. The presented coin is the eighth token from the collection covering the Medieval period in Polish coinage.   commemorative and historical value minted in .925 sterling silver fusion of traditional and contemporary coinage limited mintage attractive design   Ladislaus Jagiello (1386–1434) adopted the monetary system introduced by Casimir III the Great (1310-1370) with minor changes. He resigned from striking the largest silver coin – the grosz, and based his currency on a less valuable half-grosz. In addition to this, he preserved in circulation the quarter-grosz (also known as the small kwartnik), and a commonly used denarius (which had been already debased in weight and silver content). Since his reign, the system based on a low-value currency was to be in place for the entire century.
