Message:: [QUOTE="Jaelus, post: 3186953, member: 46237"]Some new acquisitions of note: Austria/Hungary/Transylvania1854E AU DucatKM-2263 (1852-1859)NGC MS61 This is an Austrian type, struck in Hungary during the occupation period (1849-1867) at the Transylvania branch mint; hence the complex attribution of the country. This is the first ducat type issued under a young Franz Joseph during the fifth year of his reign. Highly reflective surfaces.

This coin will serve as a companion illustrating the split 5 korona types along with my 1900KB NGC MS65.
