The Coin Cabinet in Schloss Eggenberg tells memorable stories about the coinage from Styria - from the Panther thaler from the Graz mint to the so called Wuschelkopf type of the Celts, from the gold coin from Flavia Solva, which was reworked into a piece of jewellery, to the Renaissance medal gem of Archduke Charles II of Inner Austria.
