I apologize but I do not know German and therefore I have to write using English.

A friend of mines showed me a Maria Theresia Taler that we are not able to correctly categorize. It is very similar to a Paris mint taler (http://www.numismatik-cafe.at/gallery/album.php?album_id=1199) but few details are anyway different. In the third image you can see the most significant differences wrt Paris thalers:
- the 3 feathers do not have the same lenght
- the cross on the upper crown has a slightly different shape
- the crosses on the two crowns above the shield feature both a small "sphere" at the bottom while in Paris specimens only the left one is bigger than standard crown pearls
- dots disposition in left beak seems 2-6-4-2

Please, show us a scan of the edge. This will probably help.

There are smaller differences in nearly every type of the MTTs according to different dies. More variants occur, as the dies became more and more "tired".

Hello,

Sorry for the delay in reply but I've read the post only today.

The coin in my opinion is very similar to my H49a_1_J7 (so I classified it with my codes).

The coin has not struck at the Paris Mint. The features of Paris Mint are the "pearls" around the edge and them are not on this piece.

This piece is from Vienna, not very old also if it has circulated a lot.

Dots in the Weak are the same in the left circle and very close to my piece in the right one.

That's all dear friends.
