Interesting fact

The ¼ Thaler coin from County of Tyrol (Austrian States) made of Silver weighing 7.2 g was minted during the reign of Leopold V, who was the Archduke of Austria and the King of Hungary and Bohemia from 1626 to 1632. This coin was used as a means of payment during his reign and was widely accepted in trade and commerce. It's interesting to note that the coin's design features the image of Leopold V on one side and the Tyrolean coat of arms on the other, which reflects the coin's origins and the political allegiance of the County of Tyrol during that time. I hope you find this information helpful and interesting!
