It seems related to this German token from Thale: http://www.tokencatalog.com/token_r...ord_offset=5 "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff

publius Pillar of the Community United States 807 Posts	Posted 08/11/2023 11:50 pm The denomination "Doppelthaler" isn't immediately obvious. You have to know that, after the German Union of 1871, the old "Vereinsthalers" of the various States were called in and exchanged for the new gold currency at a rate of 3 Marks for one thaler. The new system had 1, 2, and 5 Mark silver coins, but the thaler had been so popular for commemoratives that 3 Mark coins were ultimately added to the system of denominations, leading to a certain confusion. A "double thaler" had also been popular for commemoratives, and in new money that would be 6 Marks, although happily no regular coinage was ever struck in that denomination.
