| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of Empress Maria Theresia facing right, her hair elaborately curled and dressed in the Baroque style with a floral ornament at the nape, wearing a low-cut bodice with lace trim. The legend arcs around the periphery within a beaded border. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the early Baroque portraiture style characteristic of the Vienna mint in the 1740s. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Maria Theresia's accession in 1740 was immediately contested by Prussia, Bavaria, France, and Saxony in the War of the Austrian Succession — a fight over whether the Pragmatic Sanction her father had spent decades securing would hold. These kreuzers were struck through that entire opening phase of the war, financing a military campaign that consumed Habsburg resources at a rate the treasury could barely sustain. The billon composition reflects that pressure directly: 1741 marked a deliberate reduction in fineness from earlier issues as Vienna scrambled to stretch its silver supply.
