Austria 30 Kreuzer (with diamond) 1742 to 1773

The diamond on the front and back of these grand old 30 kreuzer coins make them different than most Austrian coins of the period. The diamond appears only on the 30 kreuzers of Maria Theresa, Joseph II, and Franz I. The Byzantine double-headed eagle appears on all these coins.

The coin in our picture comes from Beast Coins in New Berlin, Wisconsin USA, and CoinQuest thanks them for use of their great coin photo.
