Could you provide the weight, metal and diameter (mm) please ?

Also, larger photos of just the coins not the holder would help.

As far as I can read the text:
Iosephus Dei Gratia Romanorum Imperator Semper Augustus Germaniae Hungariae Bohemiae Rex
Joseph, by God's grace, everlasting king of Germany, Hungary and Bohemia
Archidux Austriae Burgundiae Styriae
archduke of Austria Burgundy and Styria
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph...oman_Emperor
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9...D0%B8%D0%B8)
(Or maybe Joseph II)
I think it is 1 kreuzer, Austria (or austrian states)
Mintplace: probably at the rim underneath the rampant lion
Better pictures would help
Date: 1705-1711
corrections welcome

Can barely make out something like "IOSEFHVN" which could point to Hungary and the "1" probably indicating one kreuzer or groschen.
