In today's article devoted to Ferdinand I the Good, we will focus not only on his person and the difficult time accompanying the end of his reign, the talk will be as usual mainly about coins...
We started our journey through the coins circulating in our territory in an unconventional way, in reverse chronological order, i.e. with the crown currency. With each subsequent article, we will uncover older and deeper "layers" of the history of metallic payments that circulated in our countries, as we do with metal detectors. Today, in the second part of the article, we will focus on the older conventional and Austrian currency. First, however, we should introduce in more detail the person of Emperor Franz Joseph I.
