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 coat of arms of Hungary, with the Hungarian crown on top. The coin was minted in 1661 and was used as a standard circulation coin in Hungary during that time. It's made of silver and weighs 14.74 grams. I hope you find this information helpful!
