| Obverse description | Central field bears the bold denomination inscription '12 / EINEN / THALER' in three lines, with 'FEIN SILB.' (fine silver) below, indicating the fineness of the coin. The mintmaster initials 'I·I·G' and the date '39' (for 1739) appear in the lower field. A circular Latin legend surrounds the periphery reading 'IOST. CHR. U. CHR. LUD. GR. Z. STOLB. K. R. W. U. H.', referring to the joint rule of Counts Jost Christian and Christof Ludwig II of Stolberg. The overall design is characteristic of early eighteenth-century German milled silver coinage, with inscriptions occupying the entire face. |
