Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Kreuzers - Maria Theresa 1780 coin from Principality of Transylvania (Hungarian States) is that it was minted during the reign of Empress Maria Theresa, who was a powerful and influential leader in European history. She ruled the Habsburg Empire, which included present-day Austria, Hungary, and parts of other European countries, for over 40 years. The coin's design features her portrait, which was a common practice during her reign, as she sought to promote her image and reinforce her authority through the use of currency.
