| Beschrijving keerzijde | The large denomination numeral '10' dominates the central field in bold relief, with the date 1859 inscribed directly below and the mint mark M appearing beneath the date. An imperial crown surmounts the numeral, flanked on either side by the two-word legend SCHEIDE MÜNZE, denoting subsidiary or token coinage. Decorative laurel and olive branches frame the lower portion of the design, and a beaded inner border encircles the entire reverse composition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The billon 10 Kreuzer was introduced as part of Austria's post-1857 currency reform, the Vereinsmünze agreement that attempted to harmonize coinage across the German states. Vienna's participation locked the empire into a fixed weight-fineness standard just as the fiscal pressures of the Italian wars were mounting — a structural problem that would eventually force Austria off silver convertibility entirely by 1866.
The .500 fineness was itself a political compromise, sitting below the purity of the larger silver denominatons to control bullion costs.
