Can anyone help me identify these two world coins?

[macrocoin]

I have had these for years and I have no idea what they are.

They were gifts from an aunt...never spent the time to determine what they were.

Austria 100 Corona & 4 Ducats. They're restrikes worth slightly more than gold melt value.

What would be meant by restrikes?

[gmarguli]

They were not minted in 1915. They were minted at a later date.

What would be meant by restrikes?

 

A restrike is a struck coin or medal issued by various countries for the purpose of using official coin/medal dies to strike large quantites of bullion related items. A restrike uses contemporary designs of actual circulating coinage yet often the issuing country sets aside a certain year for the restrike. In Austria's case, 1915 on the restrike 100 Corona
