Quote: 1626 Johann Georg I, Elector of Saxony, Thaler Another beautiful thaler! The similarity between this coin and the Sigismund thalers is interesting. Same 3/4 length portrait, similar armor, and even the sword held at a similar angle ... but no crown. Hmmm...

Quote: So many titles A common issue with coins from this era  On the Lorraine coins that @t360 and I have been posting, we see DVX LOTH MARCH DVX C B G, which is an abbreviation of the titles "Duke of Lorraine and Marches, Duke of Calabria, Bar and Guelders."
