I left out the tolar and tala one this but added rixdalars and dalars, so , dont know which way is best. I don't think Thalers alone would take some out of the dollar one to shorten it. I was thinkin a{{Dollar varient}} instead.Joe I13:58, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
"thalers" pre-1800 (and in most cases, pre-1871) are not "a currency", they are a type of silver coin. If there was any standard "currency" in which the value of other coins was expressed, this would have been the shilling.A "thaler" is simply a large silver coin worth a set amount of shillings (depending on time and place e.g. 48 shilling, or 72 shilling).
The concept of a named "currency" emerges ca. 1790 at the earliest (Coinage Act of 1792,loi sur l'Instruction publique du 18 germinal an III [7 April 1795]). --dab(𒁳)10:24, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
