6 Kreuzers - Maria Theresia Hall

Maria Theresia's early reign was spent fighting for her throne against Bavarian, French, Prussian, and Saxon claimants simultaneously — the War of Austrian Succession consumed the first eight years of her rule and placed extraordinary fiscal pressure on every Habsburg mint. Hall, operating under Tyrolean administration in the Inn Valley, was among the most active provincial mints during this period precisely because silver from nearby mining operations kept it supplied when other facilities struggled. The 1745 date falls in the war's final phase, ahead of the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle in 1748.

Billon issues from Hall in this period are frequently encountered with irregular planchet surfaces — a known consequence of the alloy preparation methods used at the Inn Valley facility, not strike quality.
