Interesting fact
The obverse of the coin features an image of Leopold I, Holy Roman Emperor, with a long beard and wearing a crown. The reverse side of the coin depicts the Hungarian coat of arms, which includes a shield with a double-headed eagle, a crown, and a scepter. The coin's design was created by the Austrian mint and was used for a short period of time during Leopold's reign. It is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists today.
