In 1191, two crusaders, Duke Leopold V of Austria and King Richard ‘The Lionheart’ of England, got into an argument during the capture of the city of Acre. In December 1192, on his way back home from the Holy Land, Richard was taken prisoner by Leopold on the outskirts of Vienna. The huge ransom in Silver, which Leopold managed to extort from the English people in return for Richard’s release, led to the origin of the legend of Robin Hood. Leopold used the Silver to found both the stronghold of Wiener Neustadt and the original Mint in Vienna.

I am only a few months into purchasing silver. This along with the other coin in the series are both attractive and arrived in good condition. However within a few weeks of owning they have the first coins I have owned which begun developing a kind of milk spotting, developing a haze across the coins. I have not touched them so disappointed they will only be ever worth their weight.
- Pros
- Attractive Design
- Collectible (lower mintage)
- Bottom Line
- No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I purchased this coin for its low mintage and the history it commemorates. It's an attractive coin in design and execution; unfortunately, the mirror shine is marred by a small but perceptible dent on the reverse. "Poor condition" is an overstatement, but is the closest thing to a fitting "con" on the APMEX side of things. The edge of the coin is also flat (as opposed to a bezel), giving it the feel of a round instead of a coin.
