Comment
Similar to the double Guldiner shown by Schulten #4454 or the 17 Ducats gold in MT#82.Interesting fact
The 2½ Guldiner coin from the Austrian Empire, minted in 1509 during the reign of Maximilian I, is made of silver and features an intricate design that showcases the artistic skill and craftsmanship of the time. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted using a unique technique called "frosting," which gives the coin a textured, frosted appearance that adds to its beauty and collectibility.
