Austria 1 Kreuzer. Look it up on Google. Cool coin. That's the mint mark under the date. As for the condition, you can't have everything.

Its Austrian. There are two version of this coin. Yours is with the small eagle. The 1888 and 1891 has the large eagle. The A mint mark on your coin means it was minted at the Vienna Mint.
