Comment
This coin was struck over the 12 Kreutzer coin of 1795 KM 2137. Depending on coins, the remnants of the latter are more or less visible.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 7 Kreuzers - Francis II 1802 coin from the Austrian Empire is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change. The coin was issued in 1802, just a few years before the Austrian Empire was dissolved and replaced by the Austrian Empire. This period of change and upheaval is reflected in the coin's design, which features an image of Francis II, the last Holy Roman Emperor, on one side, and a depiction of the Austrian coat of arms on the other. The coin's unique blend of silver and copper, known as Billon, was also a common feature of coins minted during this time period. Despite its relatively small size and weight, the 7 Kreuzers coin played an important role in the economy of the Austrian Empire and remains a valuable collector's item to this day.
