Comments

Wydanie nieoficjalne; istnieje kilka rodzajów kontr-znaków

Znak kontrolny: "Hejaz"
Kontrmarka na: Austria Maria Teresa 1 Talar KM#T1 Restrike

Według Krause: "Te fałszywe lub wątpliwe kontr-znaki znalezione na talarach Marii Teresy pojawiły się na rynku numizmatycznym we wczesnych latach 70-tych. Wiele z nich jest znacznie większych niż oficjalny kontr-znak. Wydaje się, że na rewersie nie ma żadnych śladów silnego zużycia obiegowego, a jedynie spłaszczone wzory z ciężkiego kontr-znaku".

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Unofficial issue; several countermark types exist

Countermark: "Hejaz"
Countermarked on: Austria Maria Theresa 1 Thaler KM#T1 Restrike

According to Krause: "These spurious or questionable countermarks found on Maria Theresa restrike Thalers appeared in the numismatic market in the early 1970s. Many of these are much larger than the official countermark. There doesn't appear to be any signs of heavy circulation wear on the reverse, merely flattened designs from the heavy countermarking."
