The coin is a silver coin minted and issued by King William IV of the Kingdom of Hanover in AD 1835, with a face value of 1/12 thaler.

The obverse side features a right-facing profile portrait of King William IV, surrounded by a German inscription “WILHELM IV KOENIG V.BRIT.U.HANNOVER,” meaning “William IV King of Britain and Hanover.” The reverse side bears the denomination and year of minting, “12 EINEN THALER 1835,” along with the inscription “CLXVIII EINE FEINE MARK JUSTIRT” around the perimeter.

The Kingdom of Hanover was established following the Congress of Vienna in AD 1814 and existed until its annexation by Prussia after the Austro-Prussian War in AD 1866. King William IV, who also reigned as the King of Britain, served as the third monarch of Hanover from AD 1830 to AD 1837. Ascending to the throne at the age of 64, he became the oldest monarch to assume the British throne at the time. While enjoying popularity among the people, his relatively short reign did not significantly influence the political landscape.

此枚硬幣為漢諾威王國的國王威廉四世於公元1835年鑄造發行的銀幣，面額為1/12泰勒。

硬幣正面為國王威廉四世面右的側面肖像，周圍以德文刻有銘文「WILHELM IV KOENIG V.BRIT.U.HANNOVER」，意思是「威廉四世 漢諾威和英國國王」。硬幣背面則刻有此枚硬幣的面額和鑄造年分「12 EINEN THALER 1835」，周圍刻有銘文「CLXVIII EINE FEINE MARK JUSTIRT」。

漢諾威王國於公元1814年維也納會議後獨立建國，一直存在至1866年普奧戰爭，普魯士戰勝後吞併了漢諾威。威廉四世是漢諾威的第三任國王，同時也是英國的國王，統治期間為公元1830年至公元1837年。他登基時已年屆64，成為當時最年長登基的英國君主。雖然他受到人民的愛戴，但由於統治時間較短，對政治局勢並未帶來深遠的影響。
