Comment
Prev. KM#1348.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2 Thalers - Matthias II (Three emperors) ND (1612-1619) coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it features a unique triangular shape, which was a distinctive feature of thaler coins minted during the reign of Matthias II. This shape was chosen to symbolize the unity of the three emperors - Ferdinand II, Maximilian I, and Matthias II - who ruled the Holy Roman Empire during that time. The coin's design also includes an image of the three emperors on horseback, surrounded by an ornate border and inscriptions in Latin. This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, highly sought after by numismatists and historians interested in the history of the Holy Roman Empire.
