Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Thaler - Rudolf 1600 from Hungary made of Silver (.875) weighing 28.82 g is that it was minted during the reign of Rudolf II, who was the King of Hungary and Bohemia from 1572 to 1608. Rudolf II was a member of the Habsburg dynasty and was known for his support of the arts and his interest in the occult. The coin's design likely reflects the cultural and political influences of the time, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists.
