Coin not found on numista?

5 posts
Hello, I have a 1765 Thaler from Karl I of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel. On the site I could only find a 2/3 Thaler and a 10 Thaler. Am I misidentifying the coin or could it be a forgery? I'll add pics.



To be sure:
- is it magnetic?
- weight and dimension?

It looks like the KM #966.1 E-IDB

Yes, looks like this one (not on Numista):

It is not magnetic, I think it's definitely silver. The diameter is around 36-37 and the mass is 25 grams according to my kitchen scale. The measurements are definitely not precise but are hopefully in the ball park of a real one. Also thanks for the link. Sure looks like my coin!
the listings for brunswick wolfenbuttel are not complete. I added the 2/3 thaler myself a few months back.
