Beyond the Mainstream: Silver Bullion Before Silver Bullion Coins – the Maria Theresa Thaler
Move over, Silver Eagle—the Maria Theresa Thaler was the world’s first “bullion coin,” prized for beauty, purity, and an unbroken legacy dating back to 1780.
Many collectors have focused on United States one-ounce silver Eagles and other well-known silver bullion coins like the Canadian Maple Leafs, the Austrian Philharmoniker, or the Chinese Pandas.
However, there is a large, silver coin that pre-dates them all: the Maria Theresa thaler, which still finds use in some parts of the world as a store of wealth in silver.
Maria Theresa was one of those powerful women in history who ended up in a position most people of her day considered a “man’s job.
This coin may qualify as beyond the mainstream, with a legacy that spans centuries.
