| Additional information |
The 30 Kreuzer denomination was revived under Maria Theresia partly in response to the monetary pressures of the War of the Austrian Succession, which had been grinding through its fourth year by 1744. Graz, as the capital of Inner Austria, maintained its own mint with a distinct output — the Her. 781–782 varieties reflect minor die differences between the two years of this short production run.
Silesian silver, much of which funded Habsburg coinage through this period, was already slipping away; Frederick the Great's seizure of the province in 1742 had forced Vienna to reorganize its bullion supply chains entirely.
