Comment
Previously KM#1954Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 30 Kreuzers - Maria Theresia (Vienna) 1742-1745 coin is that it was minted during the reign of Empress Maria Theresa, who was known for her efforts to promote the arts, education, and economic development in the Austrian Empire. The coin's design features a portrait of the Empress on one side and the Imperial Eagle on the other, symbolizing the power and influence of the Habsburg dynasty during that time.
