That's Belz not sabbateanism

So references in other sources from about half a century later suggest that something like the Prussian or old Polish mile is meant: 7.2 km ± 0.3, to just cover all the versions I've just seen

What an utter mess, this is 17th century Polish–Lithuanian currency *after the reforms*
