Interesting fact
The 3 Kreuzers coin from the Duchy of Teschen (Silesia) made of Silver features an image of Adam Wenceslaus, the Duke of Teschen, on one side, and the coat of arms of the Duchy on the other. The coin was minted during his reign from 1596 to 1609. It's interesting to note that Adam Wenceslaus was a member of the House of Habsburg, which was a powerful royal family that ruled over many parts of Europe during that time.
