Comment
Catalogued as Mule (Zwitterprägung) and counter token (Rechenpfennig) by Zöttl.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique combination of two different coats of arms on its reverse side. The first coat of arms belongs to the Bishopric of Salzburg, while the second coat of arms is that of the Khuen von Belasi family, who were prominent nobles in the region. This combination of coats of arms makes the coin a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in the history of the Austrian States.
