Hello,

I am sharing this information here for future reference. Thanks to Stratocaster for his precious help. It would be great if the general referrees could add this information somewhere where it can be found. 

 

Pfennig (12-15th century)

1 Angster = 2 Pfennig = 4 Hälbling (Haller, Stebler)

 

Guldiner (15th century-1579)

1 Thaler (Guldiner) = 2 Breiter (Halbthaler) = 3 Dicken = 17 Batzens = 22⅔Groschen (~ 36¼ Plappart) = 68 Kreutzers = 108⅘ Fünfer = 272 Angster = 544 Pfennig = 1088 Haller (Hälbling, Stebler) • 1 Groschen = 3 Kreutzers = 8 Pfennig • 1 Plappart = 3 Fünfer = 15 Pfennig • 1 Vierer = 4 Pfennig = 8 Haller (Hälbling, Stebler) • 1 Ducat = 1 8⁄9 Thaler • 1 Sonnenkronen = 21 Batzen = 1 4⁄17 Thaler • 1 Gulden = 15 Batzen = 15⁄17 Thaler
