• Resumen

  • The article presents a rare coin discovered around the Bârlad town. The coin has the obverse like Prussian coins of Frederic the Great and the reverse like Polish coins of Stanislas Poniatowski. It seems to be a hybrid coin, Zwittermünzen, and the cause of issuing it could be an economic war of Prussia against Poland. The coin had arrived through the Austrian and Russian soldiers who fought in Ottoman-Russian War of 1786-1792.
