| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Leopold I facing right, set within an inner oval beaded border. Below the bust, the denomination numeral VI appears in an ornate cartouche. The peripheral legend reads LEOPOLDVS·D·G·R·I·S·A·G·H·B REX, identifying the emperor as Holy Roman Emperor, King of Hungary and Bohemia. The portrait exhibits the characteristic elongated Habsburg physiognomy rendered in a baroque style typical of late 17th-century Austrian coinage. The coin bears a hole near the top, indicating post-mint use as a pendant. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The St. Veit mint in Carinthia was one of the oldest operating in Habsburg lands, but by the 1680s it was already an anachronism — most serious silver production had long migrated to the great mountain mints at Hall and Joachimstal. These small 6 Kreuzer pieces were struck across a seven-year window that encompasses the Ottoman siege of Vienna in 1683, a moment that strained Habsburg finances severely and pushed peripheral mints like St. Veit to sustain local currency supply while the empire mobilized.
St. Veit's output was closed permanently in 1695, making this among the final issues from that facility.
