Note
Wiener Stempel Samlung #1200 (y. 1902) says, it is hungarian coronation medal. Further stating, die of the reverse is not available, however hallmark of the lion holding austrian coat of arms is available. Gohl and Hlinka do recognise this medal as a hungarian coronation as well. Emil Novák states, it is 1791 Prague coronation medal for king of Bohemia. Some historians say it is a gift medal of the king. Edge nick.
