Baden or Hessen-Nassau, for example, plain and simply had a currency system that was different from that of, say, Lippe or Hannover. The Vereinsthaler you refer to did not come into existence until 1857, but the coins that Clinker showed us are quite a bit older. Anhalt at that time (mid-1830s) had a 17.5 g silver taler based system with 1 Taler being 24 Groschen or 288 Pfennig as far as I know.</p><p><br /></p><p>In my opinion, by the way, it is more fruitful to simply point at errors and correct them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
