Not in Krause.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 3 Kreuzers - Ferdinand III (Graz) 1655 coin from the Austrian Empire is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Europe. The Thirty Years War had just ended in 1648, and the Austrian Empire was still reeling from the devastation. Despite this, the coinage during this period continued to be minted, and the 3 Kreuzers coin is a testament to the resilience and determination of the Austrian people during this time.
