Comment
Considered by Krause as pattern of KM#453 (2 Ducat coin). Probably better as silver version within a series from 12 Ducats to 5 Kreuzer (Zöttl).Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 12th jubilee of Hiéronymus von Colloredo, who was the Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg from 1771 to 1803. The coin's design features an image of von Colloredo on one side and the Salzburg coat of arms on the other. The use of silver in the coin's minting adds to its value and rarity, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
