Austria/Hungary 100 Coronas? Are the Austria/Hungary 100 Corona coins pre-1933 or are they modern restrikes of an old pre-WWI design?? Thanks, Bill

Re: Austria/Hungary 100 Coronas? They are 1915 restrikes and about 96% of a gold ounce at that. I picked up 10 when gold was low and they were the only thing available: one could send them to a "slabber" and sell them on EBAY later - one could!:wink: Frankly as history they show one of the Throne biggies to fall in WWI plus there was Russian Throne and the Prussia/German Throne. :wink: Emulated by the thought provoking "Fall of th Eagles" 1970s DVD mini-series which is somewhat chilling right now seeing the rhyme in America. :ok: Sorry. :signs14:

Re: Austria/Hungary 100 Coronas? The Hungarian Koronas are 1908 restrikes and is a much more beautiful coin on the reverse side. If you have a choice between Austrians or Hungarian Koronas; pick the Hungarian because it's much rarer.
