Where it came from
The 1767 quarter thaler was struck during the reign of Sigismund von Schrattenbach, who served as the Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg from 1753 to 1771. This period represents the twilight of the independent ecclesiastical state of Salzburg, characterized by an economy deeply intertwined with alpine mining operations and the authority of the prince-archbishop to mint his own currency for trade within the Holy Roman Empire.
The design follows the traditional numismatic conventions of the Salzburg mint, featuring the ecclesiastical iconography associated with the Archbishopric, including the crosier and sword crossed behind the archiepiscopal hat. These smaller denominations were intended for local circulation and everyday transactions, and the 1767 issue is noted for its refined, late-Baroque aesthetic that reflects the stylistic sensibilities of the mid-eighteenth-century central European mints.
