Reisethaler Public Deposited

Definition
  • A memorial silver Thaler without date, and issued by August, Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbuttel (1636-1666). It has on the reverse a picture of several vessels, and in the foreground the figure of a man in a contemplative attitude, un- determined whether to embark on a voyage or not. The motto, ALLES MIT BEDACHT, confirms this unsettled condition, and the coin is consequently also known as the Reisethaler.
