Austria coins (kreuzers)

What is the difference between Kreuzer and Kreutzer?

I think that there is no difference. It´s just about how was the spelling of the German language.

Languages change and as time goes often words become simplified and in this case the t was dropped because it is still pronounced the same. The same with Thaler and Taler the former survived in the English language.

It is because on some coins are written Kreutzer and on some coins Kreuzer. So is there some year when this change was made?

I don't think there was a convention with all the german speaking nations but it could be around the beginning of the 19th century.

1902 i think it was reformed

The German states are complex and are a mess for this. During the same time sometimes one state had Kreuzer on a coin and the other state Kreutzer. Here an example same state both minted in 1813 but one is with and other without T https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces54452.html https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces35960.html nowadays in Germany we just say Kreuzer, Taler, 10 Pfennig...

How exactly do you pronounce those?

Standard German pronounciation if you can use the IPA system

Kreuzer: /ˈkʁɔʏtsɐ/
Taler: /ˈtaːlɐ/
Pfennig: /ˈpfɛnɪç/

I do not have a proper answer at this stage, but as a lot of Kreutzers have been minted in various Hungarian mints, it might be simply the carelessness of the Hungarian mintmaster in Brassow or Kremnica or somewhere in Transsylvania, or the Croatian guy in Zagreb, or the maestro in Bolzano...

These grammatical mistakes frequently offer lovely variations to our Austrian-Hungarian coinage.
The more wartime (whichever war it is) the more urgent the coin is, so less quality control takes place.
