The '''''Dreikreuzer''''' ("triple ''kreuzer''"), also referred to as a '''''Landgroschen''''' ("state ''groschen''") or '''''Kaisergroschen''''' ("emperor ''groschen''"), was the name of a coin minted in [[Austria]] from the middle of the 16th century, but which is not mentioned in the [[imperial minting ordinance]]s. As an important [[fiat coin]] or ''[[scheidemünze]]'', it was struck in large quantities, especially in the 17th century and in Austria as well as other southern German states to pay for their troops.
