Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 450th anniversary of the striking of Thaler coins in Kremnica, Slovakia. The Thaler was a silver coin that was first minted in 1519 and became widely used throughout Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries. The coin's design features a depiction of the Kremnica Mint, where the Thaler coins were originally minted, and includes the inscription "1519-1999" to mark the anniversary. The use of gold for the coin's composition and the limited mintage of 5,000 pieces make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists.
