Austria Salzburg 1 thaler Colloredo 1790 Restrike MS 69 PCGS silver coin 1982

The Austria Salzburg 1 Thaler of 1790, restruck in 1982, is an impressive silver coin honoring Hieronymus von Colloredo, the last Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg. The obverse presents a finely detailed right-facing bust of Colloredo, wearing ecclesiastical robes with a cross on his chest, surrounded by the Latin legend “HIERONYMVS D.G.A.&P.S.A.S.L.N.G.PRIM.,” affirming his spiritual and political authority. The reverse is dominated by the elaborate Salzburg coat of arms, crowned and supported by two rampant lions, each holding regalia — a sword and a crosier — symbols of temporal and religious power. The date “1790” appears boldly below the shield, marking the final year of his rule. Struck in prooflike silver and certified MS69 by PCGS, this restrike captures both the grandeur of late 18th-century Salzburg coinage and the artistry of its heraldic tradition. A coin of historical depth and exquisite preservation, it stands as a highlight for collectors of Austrian and ecclesiastical numismatics.
