<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cmezner, post: 4832711, member: 87809&quot;]As far as I know, your coin, an 8/20, is not a re-strike: Austria-Hungary partially adopted the Latin Monetary Union (LMU) at the end of 1867 and starting in 1870 all trade gold was dual denomination. 4 forint or florin/10 francs and 8 forint or florin/20 francs as per the standard LMU weights and measures. As this was the new trade currency they took the place of the ducat. Essentially the 8/20 was the new ducat and the 4/10 the half ducat.</p><p><br /></p><p>If you are asking about re-strikes of gold Ducats of Franz Joseph I, none of the 1915 Ducats were struck in 1915. Those are re-strikes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
