Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 100 Korona - Francis Joseph I (Restrike) 1907 from Hungary made of Platinum weighing 33.9g is that it was minted to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph I, who ruled the Austro-Hungarian Empire from 1848 until his death in 1916. The coin was restruck in 1907, which means it was minted again using the original dies from 1907, making it a unique and rare collector's item.
