Ausbeutetaler
An Ausbeutemünze (pron. "salvage coin"), also often called an Ausbeutethaler because it was so common, is an historical European coin minted from metal extracted from the ore of a particular mine. These coins were normal legal tender, but differed from the usual circulation coins because they had special images stamped on them and were often circulated at certain anniversaries.
