Comment
Pooled by KM with 1664 and 1669 under the same type.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Ducats - Leopold I (Vienna) 1682 coin is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the letter "L" (representing Leopold I) placed above the imperial eagle on the reverse side of the coin. This distinctive feature was added to the coin's design to commemorate the coronation of Leopold I as the Holy Roman Emperor in 1658.
