Comment
Variants with or without M below the bust.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 6 Kreuzer coin from the Bishopric of Salzburg is that it was minted during a time of great political and economic change in Europe. The coin was issued in 1805-1806, just a few years after the French Revolution and the rise of Napoleon, which had a significant impact on the European monetary system. The coin's silver content and its association with the Austrian States also make it a unique and valuable piece for collectors.
