Comment
Nagybánya type, but without mintmarkInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Rudolf 1601 Denier coin from Hungary is that it was issued during the reign of Emperor Rudolf II, who was a member of the Habsburg dynasty and ruled over a vast territory that included Hungary, Austria, and other parts of Central Europe. Despite being a standard circulation coin, the Rudolf 1601 Denier was made of silver, which was a valuable and prestigious metal at the time, and it weighed 0.58 grams, which was a relatively small weight for a coin of its size and denomination. This coin is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Hungary and the Habsburg dynasty, and it is a sought-after collector's item among numismatists today.
