The Thaler was the currency of the Electorate, later Kingdom of Hanover until 1857.
It was identical to the North German thaler except from 1754 to 1834 when it was worth 1/12 a Cologne Mark of fine silver (versus the Conventions standard of 3/40 a Mark).
The Thaler was replaced at par in 1857 by the Hanoverian vereinsthaler.
