Originally a coveted silver coin minted from 1500 onwards, initially in St. Joachimsthal – today: Jáchymov – in northwestern Bohemia. Because of its widespread use, the coin initially achieved standard status as an imperial thaler through the German Minting Order of 1524. After 1871, the thaler was used in all German
countries by the mark (one third thaler) at 100 pfennigs. – Thaler, mark and penny – like dollar and euro – do not officially have a plural form as currency denominations. – See ECU, mint foot, neuro, place, pound, terra.
