| Aversbeschreibung | Armored bust of Frederick William I of Prussia facing right, his long flowing hair falling to the shoulder, wearing plate armor with elaborate decorative detailing at the gorget and shoulder. A baton or commander's staff is visible at the upper left. The Latin legend FRID • WILH • D • G • REX • BOR • EL • BR: M curves around the periphery. The portrait is rendered in a bold, high-relief baroque style characteristic of early eighteenth-century German coinage, with fine engraving detail in the drapery and armor. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Frederick William I, the "Soldier King," spent his reign systematically dismantling the baroque court culture his father Frederick I had built — slashing royal expenditures, disbanding the expensive arts patronage, and redirecting treasury funds almost entirely into the Prussian military. The 1718 thaler was struck during this transformation, when Brandenburg-Prussia's mints were being rationalized alongside everything else in the state apparatus.
The Davenport and Schröder references point to a well-documented but genuinely scarce type; survivors in honest circulated grades are encountered far less often than the reign's length would suggest.
