Definition of "reisedaler"

Reisedaler. The name given to a silver coin issued by Frederick V of Denmark in 1749, and specially struck for Norway. It had a value of six Marks and appears to have been made of native silver.

1917, Albert Romer Frey, A Dictionary of Numismatic Names

Denmark's currency during the eighteenth century is somewhat involved. The speciedalers and reisedalers were the equivalent of 6 marks; the krone of 4 marks.

There were many other German and Scandinavian versions of the rix-dollar, rijksdaalder, reisedaler, or reichstaler rendering the definition of this coin very imprecise.
