| Additional information |
Maria Theresia inherited a treasury gutted by her father Charles VI and almost immediately faced the War of the Austrian Succession, which consumed the early years of her reign in both blood and silver. The 30 Kreuzer denomination was a workhorse fractional issue, circulating heavily through the Habsburg hereditary lands at a moment when military expenditure was forcing the court to balance coin output against bullion reserves. Vienna's output during 1746–1750 reflects the stabilizing period after the Peace of Dresden, when the mint could finally sustain consistent production.
Herinek references 762–765 account for minor die variations across the run. Worth noting for specialists.
