Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 15 Kreuzers - Maria Theresia (Prague) 1743-1745 coin from the Kingdom of Bohemia is that it was minted during the reign of Maria Theresa, who was the first female ruler of the Habsburg dominions and one of the most powerful women of the 18th century. She was known for her efforts to modernize and centralize the government, as well as her patronage of the arts and education. The coin's design features an image of Maria Theresa on one side and the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Bohemia on the other, and its silver content and weight make it a valuable and collectible item for numismatists.
