Comment
Davenport and Krause separate these coins according to workshop (Dav#1280 and KM#8, hand for Antwerp, Dav#1281 and KM#8.2 lion for Bruges). The subdivision we have chosen here is linked to the portrait, with or without earring, and to different-sized legend characters. Interesting fact
The Maria Theresia Ducaton coin was minted during the reign of Empress Maria Theresa of Austria, who ruled from 1740 to 1780. The coin was used in the Austrian Netherlands, which is now modern-day Belgium. The coin's design features a portrait of Maria Theresa on one side and an image of the Austrian coat of arms on the other. The coin was made of silver and weighed 33.2 grams. It was a widely used coin during its time and is now considered a valuable collector's item.
