Germany (Prussia) 1/3, 1/6, and 1/12 Thaler 1752 to 1786

Thaler, pronounced like dollar but with a 't', was the primary unit of currency in the old German State of Prussia. 3 einen thaler means one-third of a thaler; 6 einen thaler means one-sixth, and so forth. Friedrich II ruled Prussia from 1740 to 1786 and his likeness appears on these coins.

It is difficult to find these fractional thalers in good condition, so the catalog values go up as condition improves. All dates and mint marks are approximately equal valued, except as noted, as follows:
