Croatia’s First Year as a Euro Country: A New Era for Coin Collectors and the Croatian Mint

Ivan Odrljin, sales representative at the Croatian Mint, talks to CoinsWeekly in an exclusive interview about the first steps in a new numismatic environment, challenges and chances, and gives insights into the future plans of Croatia.
Karl Ludwig von Bruck, the mastermind behind the Vienna Coinage Treaty. We chose not to depict Emperor Franz Josef I at this point, who is shown on the coins, but the liberal politician Karl Ludwig von Bruck. Born into the family of a bookbinder in Elberfeld (now Wuppertal, Germany), he worked his way up from a merchant’s position to become Austria’s finance minister.

It was tragic – and not just for him personally – that Franz Josef “ungraciously” dismissed him in April 1860 on false suspicions. The then 61-year-old took his own life. This deprived Austria of an imaginative politician who might have prevented its economic marginalization by Prussia.
