 * I'm making some copy edits and left you a question in the edit summaries. I think you should removed the dates from the book templates and leave only the year, and reference 5's title needs tweaking--I think the name of the publication is part of the title.

 * OK, but now the burden is the "1320s" in the hook: I don't see that the article says that those coins (before 1526, I suppose) were called red zloty. If I read this correctly it seems that they were introduced as part of a monetary reform begun in the 1320s--is that correct? If so, the article should identify our coin more clearly in its early stages. Drmies (talk) 14:36, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
 * The source does call these coins red zloty: Dukat Łokietka, przedstawiony tu w rysunku, jest zatem pierwszym "czerwonym złotym" polskim. - "The Ducat of Lokietek (Wladyslaw), shown in the illustration, is then the first Polish "red zloty"". I guess it's in quotation marks though. I do think a more involved hook would be good. Volunteer Marek 18:18, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

 * I just don't think the proposed hook is very sexy. Mightn't "... that the last Polish red złoty were the so-called "insurgent ducats" minted at the Warsaw mint in 1831, on the eve of the November Uprising?" be better calculated to catch the reader's interest, with flammable words like "insurgent" and "uprising"?

 * Note: no need to have two versions of the same hook, ALT1 and ALT2, one with "(pictured)" and one without: the promoter will remove "pictured" if it isn't. I've deleted the otherwise identical ALT2, and struck the original hook, which was not approved by reviewer. BlueMoonset (talk) 22:56, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
