Comment
Possibly KM#2031.1 or KM#2032 but 1748GR is not referenced.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 30 Kreuzers coin from the Austrian Empire is that it was minted during the reign of Francis I, who was the first emperor of the House of Habsburg-Lorraine. This coin was minted in 1748, and it features an image of Francis I on one side and the Austrian coat of arms on the other. The coin was made of silver and weighs 7 grams.
