Etymology tree Proto-Germanic *dalą Proto-West Germanic *dal Old High German tal Middle High German tal German Tal German Talerder. Middle Low German dālerbor. Dutch dalerbor. English dollar Attested since the mid-16th century, from early Dutch daler, daalder, from German Taler, Thaler (“dollar”), earlier Joachimsthaler, literally “of Joachimstal”, the town where the original dollars were minted. The name means “(Saint) Joachim's valley”, from Joachim + Tal. Possibly reinforced by the Dutch leeuwendaalder, which was also used in the American colonies. Doublet of taler /thaler and tolar.
