j_h_s Pillar of the Community United States 1934 Posts	Posted 12/22/2007 12:00 pm Ive been unable to bring up any information on this coin. Anyone know anything about it? Also, inscribed on its rim is: 1. TIROLER TALER ~ A 900 ~ ~ ~ 1303 ~ 1953 HALL I'm INNTAL ~ ~ ~ Image: 1486tirolerthalerrev.jpg 59.27 KB Image: 1486tirolethalerobv.jpg 57.86 KB *Edited by Forum Dad to Move to World Coin Forum* Report this Post to the Staff

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
chrisild Pillar of the Community Germany 1238 Posts	Posted 12/23/2007 07:41 am This medal looks like a Guldiner, a famous coin made at the mint in Hall (near Innsbruck), Tyrol. "1. TIROLER TALER" means "First Tyrolean Taler", "A 900" probably reads "Ag 900" (the silver content), and "1303 ~ 1953 HALL I'm INNTAL" refers to the city jubilee (Hall officially became a city in 1303). This is the original, so to say - the 1486 guldiner: http://www.oenb.at/de/popup/popup_m...und_page.jsp The Hall mint http://www.muenze-hall.at/ is now a museum ... and guess what the entrance door looks like. http://www.stadtwerke-hall.at/burg-...11-Kopie.jpg 50 years later, by the way, the Austrian mint made a €25 bicolor (niobium/silver) coin to celebrate the 700th city anniversary. This 2003 coin shows the die, ie. the mirrored image, of that guldiner: http://www.stadtwerke-hall.at/press...bb41cd58.jpg (small image for viewing) http://www.austrian-mint.at/cms/dow...wnloadId=389 (larger image for downloading) Christian Edited by chrisild 12/23/2007 08:05 am Report this Post to the Staff
