The most important one: The Maria Theresia Thaler or Levante Thaler. Its name has its origin in Maria Theresia, Queen of Bohemia and Hungary, Arch-duchess of Austria, that governed from the 1740 to the 1780.
The first coin was minted in 1741 and there were many versions of it. But it was not until, at the insistence of Maria Theresia, this one coin was minted with the highest standard of design, and with a strict regulation of the amount of silver that should contain.
In 1753, the empress and the Dutch of Bavaria sign a coinage convention, defining the weight and the content of silver for all the Maria Theresia coins struck in Austria and Bavaria. That was 28 grams, with a 85% of silver purity and measuring 42 mm of diameter. After the death of the Empress in 1780, his son Joseph II allowed the Austrian mint to continue striking the currency with the frozen date of 1780.
More than thirty million Maria Theresia Thalers were struck and distributed through different European ports towards the East, Egypt and the Red Sea. Its diffusion arrived until China, India and was used in Africa like official currency until World War II. The Maria Theresa Thaler came to cover a very important niche of commerce. Europe needed exotic products like coffee, arabic gum, spices, perfume oils, and Arabia needed the silver for the commerce, the traditional jewellery and the dowries.
With the rise of the coffee trade in the XVIII century, the Arabic Peninsula had the Maria Theresa Thaler coins available in great amounts. Only ten years after being struck in Vienna, this coins came to the coffee retailers of the port of Mocha in Yemen, who sold their coffee to Austria. The demand of coffee increased in Europe, and the Maria Theresa Thalers were exchanged by coffee growing in the highlands of Yemen.
In the 1900, more than two hundred million MTT were circulating in Yemen and Ethiopia. Soon, other cities began to struck it like Bombay, London, Vienna, Rome.
Here we have the origin of the silver of the traditional yemeni jewellry. We can find the coin itself in different pieces of traditional Yemeni Jewelry. It was used like amulet, embossed with precious stones, and decorated with bells and chains. One of the reasons is the beauty of the Maria Theresa Thaler, its design and its fine accomplishment. In just a short time it gained the fame of being one of the most beautiful currencies of the world.
It's high and reliable content of silver, as well as their aesthetic, played a very important role in their world-wide fame. The jewels that contain the Thaler, used to give status to the wearer, by the image of the Empress as by its brightness. It was used to say that its brightness attracts the devil and maintain it far from the person who wears it.
This fascinating and beautiful coin with so much history can still be found with some Yemeni jewelers of Sana´a, and also as the main part of a traditional Yemeni Necklace.
