In the series “The Most Beautiful Polish Love Stories” we present romantic couples, whose fates, often surrounded by an aura of mystery, were joined by intense feelings and great passion.
A tempestuous love affair between Sigismund II Augustus and his consort Barbara Radziwiłł was a source of inspiration to design the fourth coin from the series “The Most Beautiful Polish Love Stories”. The romance started as a trivial love affair and gradually transformed into a long-lasting court intrigue, culminating in a secret marriage and coronation of the royal mistress. The magnificent silver token constitutes an oval portrait of the couple derived from historical paintings. It is rimmed by elaborately decorated frame, adorned with elegant SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS.
