Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted posthumously, meaning that it was created after the death of Ferdinand II of Tyrol, who was the ruler of the County of Tyrol (Austrian States) from 1595 until his death in 1601. Despite being minted after his death, the coin still bears his name and image, making it a unique piece of history.
