Comment
Type 5 Zöttl 713 - 717Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design, showcasing a portrait of Johann Jakob Khuen von Belasi (Rudolf) on one side and the coat of arms of the Bishopric of Salzburg on the other. This design was specifically chosen to honor the memory of Khuen von Belasi, who served as the Prince-Bishop of Salzburg from 1583 to 1586. The coin's silver content and 8g weight also add to its value and collectibility.
