Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 30 Kreuzers coin from the Austrian Empire is that it was minted during the reign of Charles VI, who was the last Habsburg ruler of the empire. He ruled from 1711 until his death in 1740, and his reign saw a significant increase in the production of silver coins, including the 30 Kreuzers coin. This coin was an important part of the currency system of the Austrian Empire at the time and was widely used for everyday transactions.
