<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 1647017, member: 39&quot;]By the way, in numismatic history there are two places named Hall around here which are quite significant. One is &quot;yours&quot;, (Schwäbisch) Hall in BW, DE where the &quot;Heller&quot; coin had its origin; the other one is Hall (Tyrol, AT) where a coin type was first made that would later become famous as the taler. A city name like that, or one that ends in -hall, usually indicates salt mining, and such a resource was often a neat source of income. Your Hall, so to say, was a free city until the early 19c, hence the effigy of the HRE emperor (instead of some &quot;regional&quot; duke, prince, etc.) on the coin. You may well know all this, but why not add it. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
