Replica of the Joachimsthaler Thaler is based on an important Czech coin associated with the Schlick family and the beginnings of thaler coinage. It is a replica of a historical coin struck in aluminum, capturing the appearance of the original Renaissance issues. The motifs on the coin recall the period when the Joachimsthaler thaler became one of the foundations of the European monetary system.
The obverse depicts the Bohemian coat of arms with the inscription bearing the name of Louis I, King of Bohemia and the formal issuer of the coin. The reverse features the family coat of arms of the Schlicks of Passaun and the figure of Saint Joachim, after whom the town of Jáchymov (Joachimsthal) was named.
The coin has a diameter of 40 mm and a thickness of 2 mm, making the details clearly visible during normal viewing. The aluminum version distinguishes the replica from the original silver thalers while preserving their visual appearance.
