    I believe this is called the "Truth Taler"
    Habsburg Talers

    TalerUniverse.com is a curated numismatic project dedicated to the silver talers, crowns, and medals of the Habsburg Empire and the Holy Roman Empire, spanning the 16th–18th centuries. The collection emphasizes historically significant issues, rare mint varieties, and high-grade NGC/PCGS examples, presented with detailed historical context, scholarly references, and high-resolution photography. TalerUniverse aims to serve both as a private collection showcase and a growing reference resource for collectors, researchers, and students of early-modern European coinage.

    Wahrheit means truth, in German. Thus, Wahrheitstaler.

    I'm humbled by the mention harasha. You picked up a fabulous piece with nice original surfaces. I hope to add one of those to my collection some day. Julius issued some fascinating talers in his time with some intriguing subject matters.
