- Notes: The first thalers were introduced in 1566 as a roughly standardized silver coin in the Holy Roman Empire, and played a crucial economic role over the next 200 years. Thalers were traded all over Europe because they had a relatively consistent silver content of about 25 to 30 grams, so it was considered a trusted medium of exchange, especially in regions where local currencies had become unstable.
