Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Florins - Ferdinand II 1631-1632 coin from Hungary is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in the country. The coin was issued during the reign of Ferdinand II, who was the King of Hungary and Bohemia, and the Holy Roman Emperor. At the time, the Thirty Years War was raging across Europe, and Hungary was caught in the middle of the conflict. Despite the challenges, the coin was still minted using high-quality gold (.990) and weighs 35.55851 grams, making it a valuable and sought-after collector's item today.
