It was not Bratislava, nor Banská Štiavnica.
The favorite place of the Empress Maria Theresa was Holíč castle located near Skalica, the westernmost royal Slovak city, in the Záhorie region.
When 23 year old Maria Theresa became the ruler of the Austro-Hungarian Empire nobody anticipated the revolution.
Nobody knew that she would mint the Maria Theresa thaler, a silver bullion coin and a type of Conventionsthaler that has been used in world trade continuously since 1741.
