| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays the crowned monogram of Anna Amalia, Duchess of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach, rendered as an interlaced cypher beneath a ducal coronet. The crowned arms of Saxony appear in the background, with the quartered electoral shield visible behind the monogram. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, reading F.S.W.V.E.O.V.M., representing the abbreviated titles of the regent. The overall style is characteristic of small German States silver coinage of the mid-eighteenth century. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field bears the denomination expressed as a fraction, with the numeral 24 above the legend EINEN THALER, indicating the coin's value as one twenty-fourth of a Thaler. The date 1763 appears in the lower portion of the field below the denomination inscription. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, with the mint master's initials FS flanking the central text. The design is plain and functional, consistent with the utilitarian character of small-denomination German States silver coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Anna Amalia ruled Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach as regent from 1758 to 1775, taking power at eighteen after the death of her husband Ernst August II, with no meaningful political experience and a duchy whose finances had been gutted by the Seven Years' War. This coin falls squarely in the immediate postwar period — 1763 saw the Peace of Hubertusburg end that conflict, leaving German minor states scrambling to restabilize local economies and reestablish functioning small-change circulation.
She is better remembered today as Goethe's patron than as a monetary administrator, but the regency coinage issued under her name is historically underappreciated.
