Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Thaler - Rudolf 1582-1584 from Hungary made of Silver (.894) weighing 28.82 g is that it was minted during the reign of Rudolf II, who was the Holy Roman Emperor and King of Hungary at the time. This coin was used as a means of currency during his rule and features an image of him on one side and the Hungarian coat of arms on the other. It's a rare and valuable coin for collectors today, especially those interested in the history of Hungary and the Holy Roman Empire.
