Gold 4 Ducats were first issued by the Kingdom of Austria in the first years of the 18th century, but only sporadically. The first year of striking without a gap until 1914 was 1854. The last regular issue of the 4-ducat denomination for circulation was in 1914 during the last years of the reign of Franz Joseph I, emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, just before the start of World War I.
None of the coins in this listing will be 1915 dated re-strikes, but earlier dated coins that actually circulated! The likeness of Emperor Franz Joseph I adorns the obverse, while the national arms is on the reverse.
Austrian 4 ducats are produced in high purity .986-fine Gold (23.75 carats), making them among the highest purity Gold coins ever issued for circulation. These Gold coins have inherited their design and appearance from the medieval Gold coins of Europe, as they are quite thin at just 0.7 mm when compared with modern Gold coins.
Collectors should note that these pre 1915 dated coins are very scarce, and not encountered nearly as often as the 1915 dated re-strikes. - Specifications
