<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bart, post: 227414, member: 5580&quot;]Hi Brian,</p><p><br /></p><p>These are yet some other examples of very interesting coins, especially the 1/12 thaler of Pomerania. It shows the initials of the Swedish king Adolf Frederik, as Pomerania was a Swedish possesion since 1637. It also shows theking&#039;s motto: &quot;Salus publica salus mea&quot;, which means &quot;The good of the people is my good&quot;.</p><p>On the reverse you see the denomination: 12 einen reichsthaler <i>nach dem Leipziger fus</i> or 1/12 thaler following the standard of Leipzig.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Hesse-Cassel 1/24 thaler shows the rampant lion, which is in the weapon of this electorate.</p><p><br /></p><p>Very beautiful and interesting coins. They always show a bit of their countries history. I like that.</p><p><br /></p><p>Bart[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
