Crafted with precision and steeped in rich history, this necklace is a true collector's piece and one of the most unique pieces we ever found.

The Maria Theresa thaler is a renowned silver bullion coin that has been a symbol of international trade since its inception in 1741.

Named after the influential ruler Maria Theresa, who governed Austria, Hungary, and Bohemia, this coin bears her iconic depiction.

Minted in various standards over the years, it carries a weight of 25.98 grams and a fine silver content of 23.39 grams, representing the highest quality craftsmanship.

Once considered a global trade coin, the Maria Theresa thaler found its way to the Arab world, including Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and Muscat and Oman, as well as Ethiopia and India. Its reputation grew so much that it became known as the "Alriyal Alfransi," the French Riyal, due to its resemblance to the Spanish eight-real coin.

With its captivating design and historical significance, the Maria Theresa holds a special place in numismatic lore. During World War II, it even played a role in the resistance against the Japanese occupation in the Dutch East Indies.

This necklace showcases an authentic Maria Theresa thaler, a testament to its enduring allure. Meticulously crafted and carefully preserved, this necklace allows you to carry a piece of history close to your heart <3

The chain is an elevated piece of silver, full of character and solidity. The width of the pendant is 5 cm and the chain is 43 cm long.
