This popular thaler hails from the final years of the historic Freiberg mint. Following reviews commissioned by Elector August, it was discovered that the mint masters in Freiberg had independently lowered the fine silver content, causing the thalers to no longer comply with the Saxon mint ordinance of 1549. Despite resistance from the Freiberg city council, the mint was relocated to Dresden in 1556, bringing an end to nearly 400 years of coin production in Freiberg.
