Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 17 Kreuzers - Maria Theresa (Gyulafehérvár) 1763-1764 coin from Principality of Transylvania (Hungarian States) is that it was minted during the reign of Maria Theresa, who was the first and only female ruler of the Habsburg dominions and one of the most powerful women of the 18th century. She was known for her extensive reforms and modernization efforts, which had a significant impact on the economy, education, and culture of the region. The coin's design, which features an image of Maria Theresa on one side and the coat of arms of Transylvania on the other, reflects the influence of the Habsburg dynasty and the cultural exchange between the Austrian and Hungarian states during that time.
