Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1718 Franz Anton von Harrach 1 Ducat coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg (Austrian States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "F" on the reverse side, which stands for "Fürsterzbischof," meaning "Prince-Archbishop" in German. This indicates that the coin was issued under the authority of the Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg, who was a powerful religious and political leader in the region at the time.
