<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 663062, member: 39&quot;]Guess I&#039;d rather like to have the newer one, as I think both are modern restrikes. As for the German text, it says:</p><p><br /></p><p><i>German empress, queen of Hungary and Bohemia, Archduchess of Austria 1740-1780. Mother of 16 children.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>The Taler has been minted since 1753. Had major significance as a trade taler in the Vorderer Orient (ie. roughly the Middle East) and many parts of Africa, partly until today.</i></p><p><br /></p><p>Don&#039;t know whether &quot;today&quot; still applies today <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> but it sure was in use for a long time.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
