6 Kreuzers - Maria Theresia Hall

The Hall mint, operating out of Tyrol, was Austria's primary silver coining facility for much of the early modern period, fed directly by the rich ore deposits of the Schwaz mines. By 1747, those mines were well past their sixteenth-century peak, but Hall remained productive. Maria Theresia's monetary reforms were still years away — the sweeping rationalization of Habsburg coinage wouldn't come until the 1750s and 1760s — so this issue sits in the last phase of the older, regionally fragmented system she inherited from her father Charles VI.
