Interesting fact
The 1 Kreuzer coin from Hungary, minted during the reign of Leopold I (1695-1699), was made of silver and features an image of the Holy Roman Emperor on one side and the Hungarian coat of arms on the other. This coin was used widely in trade and commerce throughout the Austro-Hungarian Empire and was valued for its silver content. Interestingly, the coin's design was influenced by the artistic styles of the Baroque period, which was popular during that time.
