Comment
Herinek mentions 2 versions of the portrait, the second thinner.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 6 Kreuzers - Maria Theresia (Hall) 1747 coin is that it was minted during the reign of Empress Maria Theresa, who was the last of the Habsburg rulers and one of the most influential women in European history. She ruled the Austrian Empire for 40 years, and her reign saw significant cultural, economic, and political reforms. The coin, which was made of silver, features an image of the Empress on one side and the Imperial Eagle on the other. It was widely used throughout the empire and remains a popular collector's item today.
