Pyx with Coat of Arms of Jan III Sobieski of Poland
Central Europe (Poland?); 18th c.

Central place is taken by the royal coat of arms of Jan III Sobieski. On the opposite side to the coat of arms is a medallion with the profile of an older man wearing a crown, probably Jan III Sobieski who led his army to victory against the Turks in the Battle of Vienna in 1683.
