1. The issuing country is Austria, not Hungary (although it is widely known as Austria-Hungary, it does make a difference. The Austrian coins have the Habsburg eagle on the reverse, while the Hungarian has the greater coat of arms of Hungary, which - in case of this coin - looks like this: http://www.pannoniaterra.hu/media/tetelek/m2/5801h.jpg
2. The emperor is not Joseph, but "Franz Joseph I." [in German] or "Francis Joseph I." if you want the entry in English
As I am new here, what's the process? Just enter into modification and correct someone's entry or shall I report to the Numista team, in a post like this?
oh, well - maybe you're right, I already verified the sheet. but I based my corrections on the
fact what the user entered - it was called 4 florins / 10 francs - that would mean hungary's
4 forint / 10 francs, am I right. please correct me if there is a similar austrian coin.
the images was not correct for the data though - I noticed that, too.
edit: I found an austrian 4 florin entry in the catalogs. but a different image here, too.
so maybe there are more (unlisted) 4 florin coins for austria or it is still something different
So apparently the year entry wasn't the same as the photo entry. So, I moved the owner's year entry according to the photo 1915 instead of 1870 to KM#2267 in Austria.
I understand though, man. Hungarian coins have that shield while Austrian coins have the double-headed eagle.

YES
Either the shield on the reverse or Madonna with the child, the patron saint of Hungary, and on some beautiful occassions, actually both: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces18112.html
