Ducat of Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor, King of Hungary (r. 1711–40)
A coin showing a crowned, armored ruler standing in profile, holding a sword and an orb. Inscriptions circle the rim, reading CAROLUS VI and abbreviated Latin titles, with the mintmark letters K and B below the figure. The surface is grey and evenly lit.
Look closer: Mintmark letters K and B sit below the figure, near the lower centre.
