Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Ulrich III von Spanheim, who was the Duke of Carinthia from 1256 to 1269. This coin is a rare example of a silver coin minted during his reign, as most coins from this time period were made of copper or other base metals. The fact that it was made of silver suggests that it may have been a special issue or ceremonial coin, and its rarity makes it a valuable piece for collectors today.
