Jubileums Thaler Publique Deposited
A commemorative coin, struck, as the name indicates, for a jubilee, anniversary, etc. They are also known as Denkmunzen or Gedachtnis- munzen.
There are a number issued on the cen- tennials of the Augsburg Confession, 1530, 1630, 1730, and 1830; and in 1755 Fred- erick III, Duke of Saxe-Gotha, struck a Thaler on the peace of the religions. See Madai (4013). In Holland similar pieces have been issued known as Gedenkpennige.
