Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers - Ferdinand II (Graz) 1597 coin from the Duchy of Styria (Austrian States) is that it features a unique design element - a stylized representation of the Graz Mint's coat of arms on the reverse side. This mint mark, which depicts a shield with three crescents, was used by the Graz Mint during the reign of Ferdinand II and is a distinctive feature of coins produced during this time period.
