Comment
Variants: on Moser Tursky illustration, the sceptre only reaches the inner beaded circle, here (and on Schulten picture), it reaches the crown.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Sigismund, Archduke of Austria and King of Hungary and Bohemia, who was known for his efforts to centralize power and promote economic growth in the region. The coin's design features the archducal crown and the coat of arms of the County of Tyrol, highlighting the connection between the regional and imperial powers of the time.
