This is a nice looking coin, especially the reverse. Initials "H" "A" on bottom of reverse under the date. 19.5mm.
Thanks.

I believe the date is 1759. Franz I of Austria, Duke of Lorraine.
FRANC DG R.I.S.A. GE. I. REX
HA for Hall mint. Arms of Lorraine.

In theory a 1 Kreuzer from Austria, Hall mint, but this is the only reference I can find for it:

You're probably right about the date being 1759. Since Franz died in 1765, it's unlikely the coin is a 1769. Thanks again for your help.
