Pomerania, Boguslaw XIV, half-talar 1654, Szczecin

Silver 14.69 g. A very rare and interesting type of coin issued on the occasion of the funeral of Prince Boguslaw XIV, which took place on May 25, 1654 in Szczecin. Interestingly, the prince's remains had been awaiting burial since his death in 1637, that is, for as long as 17 years. This was due to the ongoing war and the consequent lack of funds for his dignified burial.
