Message:: [QUOTE="Clinker, post: 1232005, member: 6229"]Our quest to reveal some of the Pre Empire German States' "Thaler" coinage brings us to the final listing under the letter D which now stands for Detmold.　Detmold was the capital of the small Principality of Lippe from 1468 until 1918 and then of the Free State of Lippe until 1947. Today it is the administrative center of the district of Lippe and of Regierungsbesirk. Detmold, thus, in this post. is referred to as Lippe-Detmold.　To see just how small the principality of Lippe was, look at this map of Germany. Lippe's area is defined in red on the following map (Wikipedia image):　　<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Map-DB-Lippe.svg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Map-DB-Lippe.svg" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Map-DB-Lippe.svg</a>　　Here's some of the "Thaler" coinage of Lippe-Detmold:　　Minor Coinage:　　1605 Mariengroschen (Grote):　　<a href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=939179&AucID=696&Lot=1479&Val=8744f343836669efb9417476e37a1931" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=939179&AucID=696&Lot=1479&Val=8744f343836669efb9417476e37a1931" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=939179&AucID=696&Lot=1479&Val=8744f343836669efb9417476e37a1931</a>　　1620 Grote (Mariengroschen):　　<a href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=998141&AucID=926&Lot=964&Val=194cf444f5458758d8c7ce1581ba0096" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=998141&AucID=926&Lot=964&Val=194cf444f5458758d8c7ce1581ba0096" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=998141&AucID=926&Lot=964&Val=194cf444f5458758d8c7ce1581ba0096</a>　　Major Coinage:　　1672 Reichsthaler:　　<a href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941361&AucID=697&Lot=2801&Val=89a19a15a5acaa5dbd3dac450e02d073" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941361&AucID=697&Lot=2801&Val=89a19a15a5acaa5dbd3dac450e02d073" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941361&AucID=697&Lot=2801&Val=89a19a15a5acaa5dbd3dac450e02d073</a>　　1713 Reichsthaler:　　<a href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941362&AucID=697&Lot=2802&Val=2a2cbee1c852a1a1ddaeea0a52cfd3e" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941362&AucID=697&Lot=2802&Val=2a2cbee1c852a1a1ddaeea0a52cfd3e" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941362&AucID=697&Lot=2802&Val=2a2cbee1c852a1a1ddaeea0a52cfd3e</a>　　1719 2/3 Thaler:　　<a href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941364&AucID=697&Lot=2804&Val=2231c0ccc2545bfeabca8a9eae7819bd" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941364&AucID=697&Lot=2804&Val=2231c0ccc2545bfeabca8a9eae7819bd" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941364&AucID=697&Lot=2804&Val=2231c0ccc2545bfeabca8a9eae7819bd</a>　　1761 2/3 Thaler:　　<a href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=998403&AucID=926&Lot=1226&Val=67b276c11cd3fa255841a2d248641dc9" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=998403&AucID=926&Lot=1226&Val=67b276c11cd3fa255841a2d248641dc9" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=998403&AucID=926&Lot=1226&Val=67b276c11cd3fa255841a2d248641dc9</a>　　1767 Konventionsthaler:　　<a href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941365&AucID=697&Lot=2805&Val=41eb463b5b84200c5cce3c678b2164eb" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941365&AucID=697&Lot=2805&Val=41eb463b5b84200c5cce3c678b2164eb" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941365&AucID=697&Lot=2805&Val=41eb463b5b84200c5cce3c678b2164eb</a>　　1793 Gulden:　　<a href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941367&AucID=697&Lot=2807&Val=c083ded3beb6c2cf3683673d4da7b768" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941367&AucID=697&Lot=2807&Val=c083ded3beb6c2cf3683673d4da7b768" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=941367&AucID=697&Lot=2807&Val=c083ded3beb6c2cf3683673d4da7b768</a>　　1843-A (Berlin Mint) Dopplethaler (2 Thaler):　　<a href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=993550&AucID=923&Lot=23985&Val=475f2ad19ac4b20282c049d1383d59de" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=993550&AucID=923&Lot=23985&Val=475f2ad19ac4b20282c049d1383d59de" rel="nofollow">http://www.coinarchives.com/w/lotviewer.php?LotID=993550&AucID=923&Lot=23985&Val=475f2ad19ac4b20282c049d1383d59de</a>　　1857- B 2 Thaler Commemorative -
