Kreuzer#
Kreuzer, coin, named after the double cross displayed on a coin minted in 1270 in Tirol ("Etsch-Kreuzer"); was the subsidiary unit of currency in Austria-Hungary until 1892 (worth one 60th , from 1857 onwards one 100th of a Gulden), when it was replaced by the Heller. The name "Kreuzer", however, continued in use.
