| Aanvullende informatie |
Leopold II's Hungarian ducat of 1790 was struck in the immediate aftermath of one of the most politically turbulent successions in Habsburg history. His brother Joseph II had spent a decade dismantling Hungarian constitutional privileges, ruling without ever being formally crowned — deliberately, to avoid the coronation oath that would have bound him to the Hungarian estates. Leopold reversed nearly all of it within months of taking power, restoring the county system and convening the Diet at Bratislava. This coin was struck in direct association with his Hungarian coronation in November 1790, making it a product of deliberate political conciliation rather than routine mintage.
The .986 fine standard is the traditional ducat fineness maintained continuously since the medieval period, largely unchanged across the entire Habsburg coinage apparatus.
