Class/status	Burgraviate
Authority	Conrad Löw von Steinfurth (1617-1632), burgrave of Friedberg
Date	1622
Denomination	Taler Taler The Guldengroschen (Guldiner) issued by the counts of Schlick in Joachimsthal (Jáchimov) were quickly labelled Joachimstaler (Joachimsthaler) or simply Taler (Thaler), hence introducing this term as a name for the now highly popular huge silver denomination equivalent to the gold gulden (florin). This id serves to identify all similar coins (within mainly the German speaking world) issued during the following centuries. For specific types of Talers and foreign currency based on the Taler see designated ids and their definitions. Lit.: F. von Schrötter, Wörterbuch der Münzkunde (1930) s.v. Taler pp. 676-677.
