Comment
For 1766, also exists with "MARX" on reverse (Zöttl#3074).Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 5 Kreuzer coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Bishopric of Salzburg, which was a rare feature on coins of that time.
