The book "Monety i medale Karola Ferdynanda Wazy" [The coins and medals of Charles Ferdinand Vasa] discusses the numismatic legacy of the Polish prince and bishop, one of the sons of theking Sigismund III Vasa.

Charles Ferdinand Vasa was not interested in politics but he was a great supporter of arts and a collector of art, coins and medals. He left behind substantial wealth and an extensive numismaticcollection including coins and medals minted in his name.

The author presents, verifies and, in many cases, questions earlier knowledge of coinage of Charles Ferdinand Vasa. He manages to bring to light several new variants of his coinage not describedin the literature. It is a thorough source for study of the coinage of the Vasa dynasty.
