Interesting fact
The Hieronymus von Colloredo coin was minted in 1790, during a time of great economic and political change in Europe. The coin's design features an image of Hieronymus von Colloredo, the Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg, on one side, and the Austrian coat of arms on the other. This coin was used as a standard circulation coin in the Austrian States and was made of copper, which was a common material for coins at that time. Despite its age, some of these coins are still in circulation today, making them a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
