Reverse

Imperial eagle with arms of Styria in an oval shield at centre. Value in a small flat top shield below in the legend.

Script: Latin

Lettering: ARCH AUS DU / X BUR STYRIÆ

Comment

Not in KM. Differs from KM#1638 by the shape of the shield and the design on the shoulder.

Interesting fact

The 1 Kreuzer coin from Charles VI's reign (1730-1732) was the first coin to feature the imperial eagle on the reverse side, which became a standard design element for Austrian coins from then on.
