| Aanvullende informatie |
Goslar struck this thaler in 1717 to mark the bicentennial of the Protestant Reformation — one of dozens of German civic and ecclesiastical authorities that issued commemorative thalers for the occasion, flooding the market with Jubilee pieces that year. Goslar's participation carried particular weight: the city had adopted Lutheranism early, in 1528, and had been a Free Imperial City with a long tradition of independent mint rights tied to its silver-rich Rammelsberg mines.
By 1717 those mines had been in decline for decades, and the city's fiscal autonomy was shrinking. The Rammelsberg ore that had once funded imperial ambitions now barely sustained local operations.
