Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Korona coin from Hungary featuring Francis Joseph I is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in the country. The coin was introduced in 1912, just a year before the outbreak of World War I, and was minted until 1914. During this time, Hungary was still part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but there was growing unrest and nationalism among the Hungarian people, who were seeking greater autonomy from Austria. This coin serves as a reminder of the complex history and political tensions of the time.
