Thaler (invariable plural) are the currency used in Mount&Blade: With Fire & Sword. They are large silver coins that were traded throughout Europe for several hundred years from at least the 15th century.
"Thaler" is also the etymologic origin of the modern dollar and Slovenian tolar.
The term "thaler" used in With Fire & Sword is simply cosmetic, it is still referred to as denar in the game's code, and indeed, apart from the name, it is equivalent in every form to denar in other Mount&Blade games, as well as pening in Viking Conquest.
